[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 629193, member: 1550"] Never, ever would I give any kid money for cigarettes. Just a glitch of mine, I guess. It's such a horrible habit with sol many consequences that instead I used to take my daughter's cigarettes out of her purse and toss them in the trash after dousing them with water. Eventually she did quit. I don't think a young man needs money for any reason unless he earns it. He can certainly can get a job. The allowance is completely cut off when the child turns eighteen and if they want money for extras they work. I've never had one child, even a difficult child, who did not get a job when there was no money from us coming in. That seems to work. Now some kids steal and sell stuff if they have no money, but that will land them serious consequences. Even my daughter on drugs got a job at Walmart and worked a lot of hours too. [/QUOTE]
