[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 404036, member: 6546"] Pam-- I think you should be careful what you set up as chores that "earn" money. Dishes have to be done every day as part of living. You don't want to set a precedent where you are supposed to pay him $1 each time he helps with dishes....or sometimes he gets money for dishes and sometimes he doesn't. In our house, there are regular chores that have to be done because that is life: dishes, taking out he trash, cleaning the bathroom, cleaning the bedrooms, etc. And then there are big jobs that come up but do not have to be done every day: raking leaves, shoveling snow, washing cars, etc. These are the tasks that we have set up as "money earners". So I think it's great that he wants to earn the money - find him one of those "big" jobs to do. [/QUOTE]
