[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The budget is however much she has saved up to pay for it.[/quote] I sort of agree... but I'd say the budget is 2x what she saves for it. Parents provide for kids, but making kids have some skin in the game really changes how they treat their possessions. So when my daughter wanted a better grade of electronics-- first it was an iPad that wasn't a hand-me-down, and then it was a Macbook Air-- we had her save up half the cost. That was five and three years ago, respectively, and both are still pristine, because she has a personal connection to their value. [/quote]
