Do you give your children and allowance? If so, at what age did you start? How much? I started very young with mine, right around 1. I figured if they can help me pick up around the house and pick up all their toys, they deserve...

wallfranklin So, you provide piggy banks for your kids to save money in. How do they get this money? Mine have piggy banks for the money I give them for what they do for the day, allowance. You say you don't give them money for doing things around the house, do you just...

wallfranklin My earnings finally changed! I'm surprised at how long it took. The first few days it didn't take very long at all. Maybe because it was the last day of the month yesturday so it took longer. Who knows.

Disclaimer: My aim is not to present what many might say is an offensive perspective I am just curious. I don’t have any children and sometimes I wonder if I did, if I would be able to love them the same. So the information you...

wallfranklin I agree on this one. I definately love both of my children equal amounts. While one child does something a certain way I may dislike the other does it the way I would like. They both act completely different at times, and yet they act the same also. It's...

wallfranklin I agree. I never find it appropriate to reprimand your children in front of other. I'm not sure why I feel this way, but I do. There are alot of parents out there who have no problem punishing their children in public. I've even seen quite a few spankings out...

wallfranklin My children know that they can't just misbehave and get what they want. By leaving the situation, they know that when we get home, there's other consequences. I have very well behaved children and I tend to think it's because how I choose to discipline them. I...

wallfranklin I think that children actually can start to enjoy "chores" if they know what's coming in return. My son gets so excited when he gets to put his money in his bank. I completely agree that this needs to be taught early. I'm not going to be one of those mothers...

I always get crap from everyone on how I treat my children. I'm 100% against spanking because first off, it never worked on me so I'd imagine it wouldn't work on my kids, second of all my analogy of spanking is like a man beating...

wallfranklin I don't judge anyone for how they discipline their children. I agree some things work better than other for some. I only have a problem with it when my children have to see it happen. My neighbors, for instance, have no problem spanking their children around...

wallfranklin She shouldn't have to live with the consequences, for the babies sake. There's adoption! There are so many people out there who cannot have children of their own and would love to adopt a child.

wallfranklin I definately agree. I'm new here and don't really know how this all works, but I would appreciate knowing a little bit more about pay. I guess it updates every 24 hours? It should be up to date as you post.
