Exactly, you're guessing. You have no idea about my life. Making assumptions about such things regarding anyone will expose your own limited insight.
In my day, parents didn't bribe kids into doing their chores. You did them and it was your *responsibility* to get them done. It was called building character and learning to be responsible, and it worked. You learned the value of a dollar from a *job* (mowing lawns in the neighborhood, paper route, etc). You did a good job and you got a sense of accomplishment from that, not from taking twice or three times longer than it should to get it done. If you got an allowance at all, it was just that; an allowance, not payment for services rendered.
Really, let's leave it alone now.
