[quote=Anonymous]we're playing this one by ear. My daughter has not had any luck finding a summer job (a camp gig fell through, and it was too late for any others). She's literally trying to do instacart as we speak. Almost signed up to donate plasma for cash until we figured out you had to do it 8 times for the dough.

I think her "fun money" will mostly be if she and friends go out to eat or she takes the train into the city or something. We will take care of a target run for things she needs for the dorm or if she needs grocery type stuff (freezer meals or something) If she needs clothing, she can order online using one of our cards, but that is if she actually NEEDS something.

We'll see about a job - I'd rather she focus on school her first year. If she got a little side gig on campus or got a job teaching dance to little ones on weekends at one of the local studios (or if this instacart thing actually works out and she can do something in the college town), that's probably fine. We're encouraging her to be an RA or something like that for money NEXT year.[/quote]
