    I got told that doing chores was how i was paying back room and board plus clothing and food but they would gladly give an allowance if I would like to start paying cash for those things

    Take a time out together – go bird watching and then jump rope.

    When I was growing up, not too long ago. At 10 years old our chores involved chopping wood for the wood stove and allowance wasn’t a word in our house. We chopped wood or it would be cold since we could only afford so much for the gas bill per month. My how times change in so short a period (30 years).

    Although my sister & I received a small allowance when we were young and living at home, and my wife & I gave out a small allowance to our daughters under the same circumstances; I never fully understood the concept..It does seem inconsistent to reward someone for doing nothing more than what is expected. Now, when someone goes beyond what is expected, that is quite different…
