Well, this may be the case in America. When I want to go to the Cinema, I work hard for that money. I think 'Pocket Allowance' is the most IDIOTIC thing I have ever, ever heard. In he Real world, you don't get money for doing nothing (well, I could argue about that regards some political figures here *AHEM*) so why should you get paid from your parents for doing eff-all all day? Ridiculous.
Anyway, I think whoever is rewarding the money (sorry, I've only seen this thread now!) fair play :wink:
I find this comment a tad judgmental and dislike when people lump an entire group of people into 1 category. Every situation is different. I myself and several people I know had very large allowances growing up. We all had to work hard for are money doing chores and keeping our grades up etc. It taught us how to handle money and to be responsible. Maybe that is why today we are successful individuals and can afford to have a hobby like the sims and buy simpoints more often..
Oh no, I think you and the person who also quoted my post was misunderstanding me completely.
What I meant was that I even know people who get a weekly Allowance - perhaps a Tenner or even MORE - for doing NOTHING. I mean, their parents give them money when they don't even empty the dishwasher. That's what I find so ridiculous. I think then they lose the value of money as they have not put in any effort in getting it in the first place.
So I was saying that I think you need to work hard to get rewarded, be that money or what else. And fair duce to ye who can afford simpoints, and teriffic computers to run the Sims. I am indeed very envious, trust me!!
I hope you know what I mean now.
