Can you please answer the following questions;

How much pocket money do your kids get and how old are they?

so

Age -
Pocket Money -

    BTW, 2 x DS's. 1 x 12, 1 x 13.
    Get £10 month each.
    But... I pay for after school clubs, swimming, tennis, scouts, clothes, mobiles (they dont use much on mobiles), football etc. So they can either save their pm or spend on books, magazines, cds, dvds or whatever.
    DD1 is 18mths - no pocket money yet.

    DS1 age 16 £3 a week (he gets an ema for being at school so we were going to stop his pocket money but he walks the dog ever day for this so we continue giving it)

    DD1 Age 11 £3 a week (she helps around the house more than the rest of the kids so gets accordingly)

    DD2 Age 10 £2 a week

    DS2 Age 7 £1 a week

    DS3 Age 5 £1 a week

    DD3 too young to get any

    this is theres to do as they wish with, we pay for clubs etc, i don't top up mobile phones they have to do this themselves if they want it

    Daughter aged 11 - Phone top up as and when needed of £10, no more than once a month. If she sees a dvd or cd she wants I will treat her, every few months. Husband puts £20 a month away for her in a savings account which isn't touched. Everything is provided for her clothes, school dinners or pack-up so she doesn't actually need anything. Grandparents give her £7 a week between them both.
    Every day is a new life to a wise man.
    Sufficient for the day are it's own worries.:cool::cool:
