[quote=Anonymous]My parents did not require that I work in high school. I received an allowance when I was playing a sport or in marching band or some after school activity that prevented me from working. If I was not engaged in such an activity I did not receive an allowance. They did not pay for gas for the car that I drove. If I wanted spending money or to drive the car, I needed to be working. It was pretty effective. They didn't badger but I worked. They were very consistent with not giving me spending money or gas money. Your kid doesn't want to work, fine but they don't get any money from you and they don't get to drive the car unless they can put their own gas in it. I would address that you helped them get a job with a friend that they blew off and that you would not be helping them find another job because of that.[/quote]
