cheers–hate to sidetrack you, but we are far from affluent and we’ve always forbidden our son from working because school is his full-time job. I’ve always felt a bit odd for doing it, as almost all his friends make money. He is allowed to tutor the elderly on the use of their computers and repair them in the people’s homes, but that’s it. He’s been very tolerant about how little cash this policy has left him with, I must say! We give him what we can. It’s nice to know we’re not the only ones.
