[quote=Anonymous]DD is a freshman. She had a health crisis spring of her senior year of HS and couldn't work last summer as we tried to get her health stabilized so she could attend college. I also did not want her working her freshman year so that she could focus on academics and staying healthy. She is on the meal plan and gets an addition $100/week in allowance. She also has a little savings from graduation $ and now Christmas $. I pay for books and reasonable supplies and clothing but she has to use her allowance on anything else -- meals off campus, extra clothes, gifts, etc. I plan to give her allowance in larger chunks over time so she learns how to budget before she graduates. If she moves off-campus, her allowance will increase to cover meals as well.[/quote]
