Child moneysaving board ?

Roxie

Just wondered if there were any plans to have a child or under 16s moneysaving board? My eldest (10 year old) is very interested in posting on here, I have set her up with her own identity but at the moment there is very little she can post on. I thought it might be nice for all our little moneysavers to have somewhere to post and possibly chat?

Bumping this as there have been a few 11/12 year olds join over the past few days

Yeah i seen one, chlo i think she is, how sweet!
She posted in DT I think, i just get worried as there are alot of numpties who post in there and some of the things arent suitable for kids, would be great if there could be an unders board!

There is also Twinky and lil mizz millie (who just happens to be my eldest daughter )

Hi I'm Cloe's mum and I think it would be great if there was a junior board and we could restrict them to reading/posting only on junior threads.

I don't let DD on here without me being present as I know that some of the content can be a bit 'old'.

Anyway suggested threads:

1. Pocket money
2. Bank and saving accounts
3. Homework
4. What they would really like for Xmas and Birthdays!!
5. Working - what they are allowed to do/earn.
6. Coping with peer pressure and bullying
7. How do you? to cover techie items etc.

Brill suggestions :T especially number 4 so I can just look here instead of quizzing her (although she may get ideas for things she hadn't thought of that isn't in my price range :eek:)

Sounds like a good idea. Once when my daughter was about 8yo she posted on an organizing website that I belonged to. She was at my mil's so I didn't know she'd done it until I read my posts!

I think this is is a great idea! Partly-O.K.,mostly- because then I won't have mum nosing about and finding out about what I'm getting her for Christmas all the time(well, she said she wanted surprises!).:beer: :rotfl:
