Default Re: Being Paid for Chores....

peopel choose to do thisng in many diffrent ways and I dont think one is necessary better of worse as long as there is fair consistancy.. We have personally done it a few diffrent ways but this is what works best for us..

Cecilia get an allowance of $9 per month or $4.50 per our pay (she gets paid every 2 weeks like we do) she gets this jsut for being out kid and can choose to spend it how she likes and its not 100% tied to chores.. Her only obgliation is $.25 of it will go each week to put into the church collection and its her responsibilty to make sure she sets aside that to do so..

We do not tie chores to an allowance however we also don't require a whole bunch of consistant chores from her her only consistant daily jobs are
1) making her bed and making sure her stuff is cleared from the floor (room is tidy)
2) making sure the bathroom is generally tidy no clothes or towels on the floor new ones hung if needed sink generally uncluttered and wiped down

Thats is it she does do plenty of other things as I need the help but those are the only thigs I expect daily..She does tend to soemtimes give us attitude on this and frankly one are she will reconsider if its worth battling us is with the allowance so she does get fined 10cents a day per chore for not completing her basic chores... S basically she doesn't have to earn the $9 a month but she can risk loosing up to $6 of her $9 for pre tween attitutde issues...

Every so often we might have a bigger than ussual job to do where we might offer her say .25-40 cents to help but they don't happen often..
