DS had his birthday this weekend. He's in his early teens.
He got £500 in cash and £200 of vouchers.
Historically I have always made him save part of his birthday and Christmas money in his bank account for when he's older. He has about £1k saved in that account at present - he can't access it.
He doesn't want to save any of the money this time. I've tried to compromise and say he needs to put away a minimum of £100. He is refusing.
AIBU? If I'm not being U, how would you handle his refusal to give me the money to save for him? He has hidden all the money at present.
