Every boy and every girl expects their parents to give them pocket money. Why do their parents just give them a certain amount?          71    

       The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family.          72          Some children get weekly pocket money. Others get monthly pocket money.

       First of all, children are expected to make a choice between spending and saving. Then parents should make the children understand what is expected to pay for with the money. At first, some young children may spend all of the money soon after they receive it. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until it is the right time.    73        

       In order to encourage their children to do some housework, some parents give pocket money if the children help around the home. Some experts think it not wise to pay the children for doing that.            74          

       Pocket money can give children a chance to experience three things they can do with the money. They can spend it by giving it to a good excuse. They can spend it by buying things they want.      75      Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice（犧牲）. Saving can also open the door to future saving and investing （投資）for children.
