I would like to break off parts of the vector into three or less smaller vectors.

Would you mind explaining in more detail what you are trying to accomplish/what you mean?

I would like to take the first three chores from the randomized list and move them to vector<string> kid1, kid2, and kid3.

for (gameIter = gameList.begin(); a!=3;) {
				cout <<"\t"<< *gameIter << endl;
				++gameIter;
				a++;
			}
			a=0;
			cout << "And Faith has:\n";
while (a!=3){
    cout <<"\t"<< *gameIter << endl;
    ++gameIter;
    a++;
}
    a=0;
    cout << "And Steven has:\n";
while (a!=3){
    cout <<"\t"<< *gameIter << endl;
    ++gameIter;
    a++;

}

A map would probably be better because what if there are more/less than 9 chores?

Calling main() from a function is bad.
using system isn't good (http://www.cplusplus.com/articles/j3wTURfi/)

1
2
 
		return a;
			break;

why have a break when you are always returning on the line before?

what is 'default_random_engine'?
why use c-style output (printf), and then c++ style input (cin)?

choredivisions = numberOfGames / kids_number;

if number of games is 2 and kids_number is 3, what do you think the result will be?
jasonwynn10 (412)
Default_random_engine is from <random>, it is a type of randomiser.
Two kids would get one chore and one would be left to you to be assigned.

Sorry, i should have explained a little bit more.

THese varaibles:
choredivisions = numberOfGames / kids_number;
are all integers. Two divided by three is equal to zero.
jasonwynn10 (412)
but the unassigned chore is still applied as unassigned.
