Do you allow your kids to buy stationery with the pocket money they save? I find that my son (aged 11) comes home with all sort of knick knacks from the school bookstore, instead of eating a proper meal! Should I therefore increase his pocket money? Or limit his shopping sprees at the store?

I have been thru that stage where I love the bookstore so much that I rather not eat. I don't think it will help the situation much by increasing his allowance but maybe just stick to the same amount and talk to him about your concerns.
