My daughter is in y11. 15 turning 16.
I haven't invested much in her trust fund as I was unsure her having loads of money at 18 would be useful.

It is worth about 5k now. My dd says her boyfriends is worth £600.

She says some of her mates families have no idea about it.

Guess my Aibu is can't believe some families don't know where there £250 is?

Thank you. Feeling a bit rubbish I didn’t do more but I looked into it at the time and did what we thought was right. I was in my 20s and clearly naive. Dd won’t go without but clearly we could have made more of her free money than we did. Too late now.
