[quote=Anonymous]My 14 year old son has a long-term dog walking job this summer and is making about $200 per week. Once school starts back up he'll still have the job, but he'll be doing it less so less $$. Anyway, He pretty much blows the money immediately on random crap - like, why on earth does he feel the need to buy a $90 toy helicopter or $100 worth of books at Barnes and Noble? Should I force him to put some in savings or make him consult with me before purchasing stuff? I feel bad doing it because it's his money that he earned, but it kills me to seem him spending it on junk he'll use like...five times.[/quote]
