I struggled working all the time and it took 6 years on and off before I just only then had a technical degree. I wish I could have afforded just college for 4 years.
My god I do not want my child trying to make it like I had to. Yes, part time in college for extras, but we will pay for school and room. I absolutely a thousand percent do not want them working in high school.
Now that I have a child we will do a similar thing with allowance so they can learn the value of money, but by time they're in middle and highschool they will have access to a credit card if they need it and we'll have talked about spending. I moved out at 18 and used the life insurance money to pay for a few years in college while I worked 60+ he weeks. For us asking for a phone or something expensive was just not even on our radar because we knew we didn't have money. I also had to save to buy a car, but I also used some life insurance money I inherited (for context, my other parent died when I started hs so we were just one lower income parent household) I remember my dad would buy us things, but within reason. My cell phone was the huge thing and concert tickets. In highschool I started working to help pay for my car insurance and extras. We could also earn extra money by doing additional choices. We actually did get allowances when I was younger, but we had to earn it by doing daily chores like take out trash, help clean kitchen after dinner, clean toilet, etc. Note: I'm not looking for a CMV-style of discussion, I just want to see how the community feels about it :) The kid is an above-average kid that can get As with sufficient revision (You guys can change this up) Lunch isn’t from home and they have to get their own lunch money Kids aren't spoilt/didn't do anything that's bad enough for them to revoke their allowance Also to clarify things, by allowance I mean lunch money IMPORTANT EDIT: I forgot to include high school in the title. This got me thinking, is this parenting method considered harsh, and what are the pros and cons of this style of parenting? I will be making a few assumptions.
He is a Grade 10 high-school student, while I'm a college student. We find it highly suspicious as he told me that they had the latest iPhone 13 and all but one had AirPod Pros. He told me that most of them had to work constantly, just to not starve and had no free time, they weren't given an allowance. Context: My friend got into an argument with his groupmates as they won't do the project due to work.
