A few years ago when the two " snowthrowers " I had ( my boys ) got older and too busy to shovel anymore , I bought myself a snowblower . Additionally , we own our share of hats and gloves and coats and scarves and know how to dress for the weather . We all have ice skates , and snow skis and snowbords stand ready and at attention .
Why have the boys stopped helping with the snow shoveling at home ?
Pick the best answer from the following options:
- They are no longer being paid to shovel , and are not interested in doing it for free
 - As they have gotten older , they have become less interested in helping as readily
 - None of the above choices .
 - They both have a degenerative muscle condition , which makes manual labor difficult


As they have gotten older , they have become less interested in helping as readily
