We're reviewing our somewhat sporadic financial arrangements with 16 (soon to be 17)-yo dd.
For reasons I don't want to go into, she's not in a position to take up work outside the home and me and dh are lucky enough to (currently) bring in a comfortable income.
However, we do want her to learn how to budget rather than us buy most of the things she needs for her.
We also want an element of "performance-related pay" in the sense that it will be linked to keeping her appalling tip bedroom in some sort of order.
Could I ask what sort of arrangements you have with your 16/17 yo dc? She has a bank account and cash card, so I'd envisage we pay her allowance into that by direct debit.
