[quote=Anonymous]No money for chores. We budget for other things. $20-30 for gifts. For clothes they have a set budget, and we do it on line. Athletic gear we pay for (budget blower!) Summer camp they have a budget. This year they choose 2 weeks of day camp over one week of overnight. I found that giving them a dollar or two here and there every week did not work, and where they really needed to learn to budget was with the clothes and shoes. So if I gave them the clothes and shoes budget in cash, that would be much too tempting. We have girls. Also, although they need to learn, the things they bought at the mall were so awfully low quality, and the sizes of the things you want are always sold out.[/quote]
