The more pocket money you give a child, the more responsible they become.

Pocket money for a young child could be a symbol of responsability and a confidence, which his or her parents  gave to him or her. The amount of money should be tailored to the age of a child and is could increase with time.

Firstly, giving children money for small expenses is a good thing and it could teach a young child a lot of positive aspects like responsability, planning or save money. Money is a very important topic in the life of each person and from the beginning we should explain a child that we must plan some big shopping we must plan and we need to save money to buy expensive product. This  experience teaches a small child  humility and patience. Secondly, when we give a child pocket money he or she knows that we trust him or her and we believe that our child will spend this money in a good way.

Also, pocket money could be a kind of reward for a good grades, help in the household or different positive things which our child does. Currently, in Poland it is popular to pay for good grades. It is a good idea, but for a short period of time. For example, it could be an encouragement for child to bear problems at school. Paying for grades it is not good for a long time, because a young people should understand that everyone learns for each other.

Thirdly, the amount of money should be tailored to the age of a child and with time it could increase. An older child has different dreams, and he or she may demand a more expensive product like a tablet or a computer. A parent, on the other hand, may not want to buy them. Thanks to saving money a child could  plan what he or she wants to buy and this would teach him or her  a responsability. He or she would learn to achieve his or her goal.

To sum up, in my opinion giving a child pocket money  is a good idea and teaches children a lot of positive aspects like responsabilty or planning.
