ed_pete Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Sensitive topic in our house at the moment. What do people think is an appropriate amount of pocket money for an 11 year old ?

Asset Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 I give my 10 year old ?2. But - he has to ask for it along the lines of monopoly and he usually forgets ha ha. May raise it to ?3 when 11. I also make him do a chore for his money - latest is mopping the floors which he does without too much fuss.what with that and the constant quids he gets after school for choccy, probably adds up to about a tenner a week.

Michael Palaeologus Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Give em ?3 and make he earn a bonus. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/903-pocket-money/#findComment-22561 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed_pete Posted June 16, 2007 Author Share Posted June 16, 2007 Thanks for that - ignoring "extras", I'm opting for ?13 a month, just over ?3 a week. Should be enough to keep her in the odd magazine and Cafe Nero smoothie (will have to lecture on supporting local shops etc), which is about all she seems to spend money on.

Jonboy Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 shouldn't they have jobs by this age? I believe the Ukranian salt mines are good payers Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/903-pocket-money/#findComment-22700 Share on other sites More sharing options...
