My 16year DD does once a day. With her money. I think it's ridiculous to spend her money on it but it's a ritual she does with her friends.

Old wives tale. It does no such thing.

It’s junk




Or maybe we choose to spend our money on better things. I’m poorer than most DCUM posters but I still think it’s crap, overpriced, and I mostly drink water.

DP. It’s possible to just say no without the self-righteous judgment.

Over Starbucks.

But whatever makes you feel better, I guess.


On DCUM? IMPOSSIBLE.

It’s all they’ve got. Let them have it.

We live in an area where the nearest one is a 5 minute car ride and I don’t let our licensed teen drive on those roads yet (family decision), so never.

My teen is a lifeguard and has their own money. Goes too frequently for my taste, but it's their money, not mine.

Baked goods - once or twice. He is not a coffee, tea, juice drinker. He has access to his dad's starbucks account though!

14yo son - once or twice a week, I’ll grab him a black tea lemonade, if I’m getting one. Sometimes he’ll say he’s not interested, but usually wants one.

Pre-covid, going to Starbucks was a social event to do with friends. It’s across the street from our MS distance and she’d go there after school - maybe once or twice a week. But like I said, it was more about the socializing than the actual drink. Now that there’s no meetups with friends at Sbux, never.

Not starbucks but prepandemic my ds really liked fruit smoothies from the fancy grocery store. Sometimes he paid sometimes we paid. He probably got them twice a month.

Since March he just makes smoothies in the blender.

He has not been in any stores or restaurants or coffee shops since it started. He doesn't need to.

I am shocked people are getting stuff so often. Wow.

Once a month with her allowance.
$20 a month if the chores are 100% complete.

I only take them when there’s a good star reward offered. I’ll treat them to their fraps or baked goods, then use the stars on brewed coffee for myself.
