If its family, unless they reached a level of disownment, responsibility meets no conditions.
It's a mans duty to carry as much as responsibility to alleviate his family's burden.
1. An incentive
2. Authority
3. Leverage
Ideally you want responsibility to beget all three. Most of the time, you start off with only one.
You might learn a thing or two, which can be valuable, but overall, it is value exchanged for nothing.
If it doesn't, then you're not disagreeable enough to negotiate conditions that fairly exchanges value.
Authority is valuable. It turns you into a leader.
And you should reject it. Being exploited in this way is a good indicator that you're too agreeable,
and people end up easily extracting value out of you.
If the responsibility given, is very valuable in of itself, & can be leveraged against the person giving it.
This is the cunning method that forces a return in value.
