How Much Money Should a Child Be Given
Afton Smith notes that regular weekly allowances teach planning and restraint, reducing impulse buys. As children grow, they handle more expenses like school supplies, lunch, and clothing, learning to save and budget for bigger purchases. Parents should adapt amounts as wages rise and include small costs like Sunday School money.
