My son wants a new video game box, Sony Play Station. I told him he has to pay for it him self but hes only 12 and there about 300 dollars.
He can't touch his savings as that's all xmas/birthday money for education.
I told him he can do choirs around the house to make money to pay for it (the small community we live in he can't get a job as all the kid jobs are taken bye high school kids but that's ok.
My question is what should i pay him for odd jobs. He does not get an allowance to speak off but we do give him money when he wants to do things like the show or a slushy at the store. He is a good kid but i want him to earn it. Plus i dont want him to reach is goal to fast as he must show responsibility and the ability to make his goal a reality.
I was thinking
-2 bucks for the dishes
-5 bucks for the lawn small yard
-2 bucks for vacume and tidy up the house
-5 bucks helping mom garden
Does this sound fare to you guys
