Allowance/Spending Money

<p>Thank you both. Hastalavista, did your son have his own money to spend as well? Deerfield, do you? Our D will have earned about $1600 this summer (though undoubtedly some of that will have been spent), so she will have money of her own for “extras” though we will fund the necessities. I’m curious, though, about whether parents routinely have kids use their own work money or whether parents very routinely give the $100/month (or more) for all the extras + necessities. Thanks!</p>
