Hi,
Ds is 12 and id like to start giving him proper pocket money. Up until now I've just bought what he needs ( he rarely asks for anything) but now that he's older, and wanting to go into town with friends etc I'd like to give him a set amount. I've also just set up an osper card for him.
How much pocket money do you give to your pre teens? Do they get any extras? Like phone contracts? Would you take these out of pocket money?
DS gets a phone contract of roughly £20 and PS online network ( works out about £4 a month). We give his little brother (7) £5 a fortnight and he also gets a magazine once or twice a month.
