    A lot of these folks in prison were raised “free range” or completely feral and thus were never taught even the most basic elements of home care and cleaning. Knowing how and when to do those “chores” is essential should any of them want to reintegrate into society as any sort of a functioning person. Like the military will show recruits basic hygiene because some of these recruits were never taught it.

            Mowing the lawn, washing the dishes and cleaning the bathroom were chores. Which is what I’m referring to as chores. Firefighting was not a chore where I grew up. I guess it must be different where you did.

              Prisoners aren’t taught how to do chores, they are in “involuntary servitude” aka slavery. One of these tasks was being fire fighters in the most dangerous part of fire fighting, stopping wild fires. I guess you should look up what people were talking about in this thread. gootbye
