[quote=Anonymous]Is the allowance tied to anything? We do 1/3 to each of: spending, saving, and charity. However, if monthly chores (we have a chart) aren't accomplished, there is NO allowance. We don't pay partial amounts. I consider it like a salary. If I didn't do my job for the month, I don't get paid, so neither does DC. I don't make DC pay for birthday gifts for other children. But I do make DC pay for items at the store, tax included. Monetary gifts from family go directly to savings. No questions, no discussion. We give a bonus for vacations if all chores have been up to date prior to that in order to allow for extra spending for crap from gift shops. [/quote]
