When broken down it's not that generous and the fact they have to earn it and lose some as punishment too!!

Luckily they have grown up to be quite good with money, whether that is because I have been trying to teach them from a young age that you have to budget for the things you want and also earn it too.

Sounds very good to me. I think I will implement something like that when mine get older.
