Hello Sonia,
Do you give your child pocket money?
Yes
When did you start? Did you and your partner agree on this?
We started giving Maisie pocket money a couple of months ago when she was about 5 and a half.
How much do you give?
£2.00 per week
Why do you give it?
Maisie seems to think that money grows on trees so by giving her pocket money it gives her a little bit of responsibility and a little insight into what being a grown-up will be like.
What does Maisie spend it on?
Comics or sweets
Do they save any?
£1.00 a week goes into her piggy bank for special occasions such as holidays, day trips etc.
Did you get pocket money?
No I didn’t, I asked for it often enough but I started a paper round aged 9 so I always had a bit of money :O)
Thank you Sonia ….
