Unsolicited Advice: Friendly Neighbor Addition

Friendly neighbor (FN): "How old is your little guy now?"
Andy: "Four months old."
FN: "Do you have him doing chores yet?"
Andy: "No, not yet..."
FN: "Well, don't wait too long. Parents nowadays treat their children as if they were made of gold..."
Andy: "Right. 'Spare the rod, spoil the child'..."
FN: "I'm not saying you should hit the kid."
Andy: "..." (clears throat)
FN: "I always told my son, you have two choices: you can either do the work now, or get punished and then do the work."

Just some friendly neighborhood banter.
