Yes. When I was a little kid, until 10 or 12, I went to my uncle´s farmland from time to time. At that time I believed that my work at the farm was very useful, seeding and harvesting, that is what adults told to us, children. After years, I have realized that we were just a headache for them. While we were "at work" we did not disturb them and they could do the really useful work.
