I actually give my teen son around $50 a week but he pays for lunch/snacks and gas with it. $50 doesn’t go far when you are a growing teen and gas is $3.50 a gallon.

I can understand that for sure. The reason I only give my 15 year old son 10 bucks a week is because he doesn’t have his license yet. Plus, his Mom and I pay for pretty much everything and the ten bucks can be either saved or spent on something…again doesn’t go far at all. Soon 10 bucks will buy him a pack of gum if he is lucky. lol.
