So they learn to save if they want more valuable things rather than to splash out impetuously.

Even though we were anticipating a visit from Dorian yesterday afternoon, my daughter sent me a picture of my 6 year old grandson Jack "driving" a rather large toy car. They purchased it online for $160.00. To my knowledge, he does not get a weekly allowance, but he does save every penny he receives as birthday or Christmas gifts. He paid for the car all by himself!

When I told my husband, he said that Jack takes after G-Dad (my husband) rather than his own father. My daughter is always asking me for money because he rarely gives her any. She is a stay at home Mom of two boys and would rather raise her own children than pay an outrageous sum for daycare. She has an AA degree in Early Childhood Education so she is qualified to do so!

If they are 'her' kids; then she is 'qualified' to do so.
