My dc are nearly 15(ds) and nearly 12(dd).
I'm thinking that I might up their pocket money. They get £5 and £3 a week respectively.
What is the usual pocket money for these ages?
Both get lunches, phones, school supplies, club subs, school bus fares, music lessons paid for. I buy DS's clothes (he has very little opinion on clothes), and am trying to make him engage with what I/we chose. DD will happily have a budget and just needs me to accompany her to the shopping centre.
We live quite rurally, so not masses of shopping opportunity. DD spends all her money on sweets and soft toys on holiday.DS saves every penny, to the extent of meanness, but also bought his own Switch.
