We gave our daughter about 500 bucks when we got tax return (we do this because we figure most of our taxes are because we had her so she should get some money) and she spent about 150 on cat ears. She has one for every day of the month. lmao She has been wearing them ever since. It is like going to town with an anime character.
Why would you give ur kid $500 of ur returns does she get an allowance too or is that like her pay for doing chores or is it just like a thanks for being r kid
But yea that's why i would never give a kid more than like $50-$100 at a time because they won't see the importance of money and will blow it on garbage instead of saving it or saving for something they truly want
All year she gets only little gifts for birthdays and holidays. Tax return is the one time of year where she gets alot of money to buy anything she wants. Anything she been wishing she could have but couldn't because we are not a rich family. We also buy her clothes and shoes, winter coat, new swim suit, and other things she needs. But that doesn't count twords that money we give her.
And no she doesn't get an allowance, yes she does have chores. When she was little we just bought her toys she wanted but when she was 6 she got to have 100 dollars at 7 she got 200 at 8 she got 300 at 9 she got 400 and this year at 10 we gave her 500. Next year she probably get 500 again. She is a good kid (most the time lol) and we wouldn't have it if it wasn't for her. As a kid didn't you ever wish to go on a shopping spree?
