If one doesn't care enough to notice if its good or bad enough, one will do a bad job of that task.

Also, mowed lawns are f*****g ridiculous and good riddance to the noise, smell, pollution, cost, and effort of keeping a lawn nice.

If one doesn't care enough to notice, then that person should not expect to get paid for the work performed. And, I believe that is key point here. The OP didn’t just want to give his son money. He wanted his son to earn the money.

IMO, this entire discussion has nothing to do with being an Aspie. Rather, it’s a values thing. And values are ideally ingrained within children at a very young age.
