[QUOTE="aeroeng, post: 425214, member: 6557"] The first time difficult child complained that easy child was using his lunch money for other stuff, and making his own lunch, we said, "OK, no problem as long as he cleans up and lets me know when the food is low". We learned it is a lot cheaper, and without any arguments to give them 50% of what you would have spent and let them make the decision. I think it helps them learn about what things cost, and helps them manage the money. And mostly I don't have to hear the "Mom will you buy ...." [/QUOTE]
