[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shoes, AirPods, phone plans with a lot of data, a car, Xbox, basement room renovation, It never seems to end. He works a little bit but between COVID and family vacations- not much. And that’s his walking around money- He gets an allowance ($30/mo) [b]Should we let him spend it on whatever he wants?[/b] He’s home all the time now and wearing me down. Please advise [/quote] You mean the allowance? What is he allowed to do with it currently? Isn't the basic idea to teach about saving for things you want and deciding what your priorities are among the things you do want? Guessing if he wants a car he is 16 or close to it, $30 a month isn't going to do it, but thinking the financial education (and maybe the allowance, or pay for extra chores) need to move ahead a bit.
