Not to flame you in anyway, but my son uses his money (I talked about this in an earlier post) uses his money for time with friends. My parents as well and my hubby and I paid for his used car. We pay his insurance and from time to time give him gas money because he does run errands for us, including taking his sister to after school activities. He is extremely active in after school activities, is involved in his youth group, and is a straight A student. Defintely during the school year there is no time for a part time job. Also someone mentioned a paper route. My brother and his SO other used to deliver papers as well as full-time jobs. Their day started at 4:15 every morning 7 days a week and they had at least 2 hours of delivering papers. I realize it is different everywhere, but if you took a day off you had to pay someone else 50.00 to take your route. If there was a complaint from anyone no matter what the complaint was, you were docked 1.50. The weekly paper doesn't even cost that much. I would never recommend a paper route, but if you are ever looking to hire someone and they have had a consistent paper route for over a year, that is the person you want to hire. |
I have to agree with this post. - trose
