Default Re: Giving Your Children An Allowance

The "A" word has recently made its way into our home via our second grade diva-in-training. DH and I decided to create an allowance contract complete with terms and policies that were carefully read and discussed before she signed up for this responsibility. I am not entirely happy with the sum but it has eliminated a little "sticky fingers" problem that was occurring far too frequently. It's a good way to get the kids into the habit of having some money and how to use it responsibly IMHO.
