Pocket money 16 year old boy?

[insidethebox]

I'm reviewing my son's pocket money/allowance.

Woud anyone like to share what they're paying their teenagers (and what it's meant to cover)?

?20 a month.

For any inessentials - money in his packet kinda thing.

We pay for phone, clothes, special trips out e.g cinema or theatre, school trips, I also buy him one item of inessential clothing a month choice of his choice up to ?50.

We also will give him ?10-20 here or there for a day/ trip out with his mates or his girlfriend for example.

He also has a couple of part time jobs.
