[QUOTE="tammyjh, post: 110724, member: 3072"] Maybe an envelope system? Take 3 envelopes and label then "Spend", "Save", and "Donate" and when he gets his $$, help him divide it up between the envelopes. You can put the "Save" and "Donate" up somewhere until you're ready to either take it to the bank with him or a place where he's going to donate it. Then he has the "Spend" to do whatever he wants with it, even if it is to throw it in the fountain. You could also just do two envelopes..."Spend" and "Save" to make it easier. I started this with my difficult child and she liked it. Its my fault that we haven't kept it up because allowance kind of fell by the wayside. I'll have to start back up again. I'm interested to see other ideas from everyone else on this one as well. Good luck!!! [/QUOTE]
