| My 14 yo daughter gets £30 pm. She is expected to buy her make-up, music, mags, "extra clothing" ie. fun stuff, bags, belts etc. But I buy her normal clothes. If she is just going out with her friends locally she will use her money but if she is going out for the day somewhere special I will give her £20 for entry and lunch.
She makes extra by baby-sitting a(£4 per hour) and she gives piano lessons for £5 per half hour.
If I ask her to do something specific like clear up leaves in garden or sweep front of house, I do not expect to pay her anything for that and I don't. That is part of living in the household and she is expected to help occasionally and she does not mind.
