[quote=Anonymous]My six year old daughter, after seeing this mentioned in several books, asked for an allowance in exchange for doing chores. She also got interested in a lemonade stand out something like that. My own family growing up has always been strongly against putting money into family affairs - they should help each other out because we're a family, not for money. Especially since there's not much value they can add, since even spending the money is dependent on you driving them to the store. I'm torn. I want to encourage anything she's excited about, and foster better understanding of money than I had growing up.... B but the arguments against are pretty strong. What are the thoughts of people who have considered it do offer an allowance, especially for this age? How do you prevent it from turning into basically bargaining every chore or favor? [/quote]
