[quote=Anonymous]My dd is heading to middle school in the fall. Within a short walking distance of the school is a grocery store with a Starbucks inside. If I am ever there around the time school is letting out, I often see MS students buying snacks at the store or Starbucks drinks. Sometimes I see them there before school, too. If you have a middle schooler with access to food/drink like this, how do you manage what they spend? Do you give them allowance? Do they spend their own money? Are you worried about those sugar/caffeine bombs at Starbucks and do you advise them to not have them as much? I know 6th grade is the start of more independence and I want to do things right, but we don’t have a Starbucks budget for the adults in our family, let alone the kids. How do you handle this?[/quote]
