THE CHILD who normally can earn his own spending money may gain an excellent education in the value and use of money. But very few children can have this _privilege. Almost none can earn money before the age of ten or twelve. Oh, yes, the child can be paid for helping about the home, but if he is, how is he to gain a healthy feeling of obligation as ‘a member of the family group? Is he likely then to volunteer to ‘help jn many other jobs he is not paid for? Besides, many parents who pay their children for home chores soon find themselves scolding and punishing these children to make them do the very jobs they are paid for. However, should the child, say at ten or fourteen, ve & striving to save money to buy some long-desired thing, his parents might properly pay him for an irregular or unexpected job/occasionally. sh A Nine-Year-Old Here is how one child began an allowance gat the age of nine. When school began he was given ten cents a week to do with as ne pleased. As he needed money for lunch, bus fare, Sunday school, he was given the money necded. He kept account of these reg:i'ar expenditures for two weeks. Then he and his mother were able to know what his allowance, including the ten cerfts to do with as he pleased, should be for the week. Irregular expenditures, as forechool supplies, were not at first in.uded, but doled out as needed. A year later they were included. He understood, that for the expenditures: plus luxuries, he would receive no more that week, -and that he would have to makefit last. From specified regular for each school day, one for Sunday school and one for the dime. On receiving his allowance on Mondays, he distributed it in these bins. Some children use envelopes instead. ’ No Itemized Accounts This child was not required to keep an itemized account of his expenditures. A few years later he was induced to do so but not with the purpose that his parents would know how he used the money; rather as good business exercise. “f, as so many parents require, the child must show satisfactory accounts before reaching the next tempted to enter false records in out right, or to escape censure. By basing the allowance on the budget plan ‘instead, when the allowance is feceived, temptation to deceive by juggling records is removed. More Items Included As this child grew older, more jtems were included in the allowance, such as movies and supplies, and the budgeted allowance obviously had to be re upwards from time to time.
