Take a look at the comments. There is one from a single mom about her own experiences shoveling out her driveway while neighbors - grown men with snowblowers - do their own driveways and ignore her as she struggles. (If I recall correctly, the commenter has children too small to help.)
Definately an important lesson. My kids are learning that they need to be helpful to others. My son will not only carry the groceries, he helps bag them. My daughter volunteered to help our church out with washing towels for the shelter program they run. Small things like this make me feel we must be doing something right! Hopefully I can keep them on this same track as they get older and more capable.
