[QUOTE="C.J., post: 249236, member: 1987"] Money tips: Give her a modest allowance. Tell her she can save it or spend it - but when in the store with me, every time she asked for something she wanted, I said, "Yes you can have that, as long as you spend your money." When she got older, I gave her the money for clothes for the new school year. When the money was gone, the spending stopped. She got to be quite the bargain hunter. Lunch account, the same way. I put money in her lunch account every pay day - if she bought lunch for her friends, and they didn't pay her back, SHE could pack something from home or go hungry. It didn't take long for her to learn that lesson. [/QUOTE]
