Many parents ask questions: why in general the child needs money when it is the best of all for it to give them and on how many. Such questions concern all parents sooner or later.
What is pocket money? First, it is some certain sum of money which is given to the child in his full order. Pocket money plays very important role. At least, they allow the child to feel more adult and more responsible, and it is already a lot of. If at least from time to time the child is not able to buy to himself that he is pleasant to him, he can experience about it negative emotions. As a result, at it greed or envy to other children to whom pocket money gives can develop.
Parents who against pocket money, consider that the child is still small and for this reason for him parents have to buy things. Why? He is not able to make a right choice so it is the best of all to save it from such responsibility. Besides, if to give it even the smallest sums on pocket expenses, it can become whimsical and spoiled. Other parents consider that pocket money is necessary.
Also those are right, and other parents, but the best in this case – golden mean. First, it is not necessary to give pocket money to the child if he does not go to school. After all, but preschool children have to play games, but not recalculate income. If you think that the child is already ready to receiving money for pocket expenses, take care of that they became concessions of his blackmail, and otherwise young "blackmailer" will understand that it is enough to it to press a little only to receive money.
The sum which you will give to the child entirely depends on the income of family, but do not forget also that pocket money already by the definition should not be big. When the child receives money for personal expenses, he has to have also some duties, if he considers that he is capable to dispose of money, so he already grew to certain household chores.
But you should not forget at the same time and that pocket money should not become attached neither to estimates, nor to instructions, it is fraught that the child will not take out garbage or to learn history because did not pay it. It is the best of all to encourage its good behavior. Besides, this you popularly prove to it that money is really earned, but are not given just like that.
You should not try to pay off with pocket money from the cares and problems related to the child. Usually fathers businessmen who do not wish to spend time and forces on education of children conform to such rule.
