the value of money
I thought we were doing a better job at teaching Quinn the value of money and that it doesn't always just magically appear. He now has various ways of earning money and most often is required to use his own money if he wants to purchase something. Today's conversation makes me question if maybe we are paying out a little too generously?
Quinn: "We need to buy Kyle Disney Silly Bands. He wants some."
Me: "Sure, if you want to buy them with your money."
Quinn: "How much are they?"
Me: "$5"
Quinn: "WHAT? Five dollars? That's SO EASY? Just five dollars? Really?!?"
*Note*: If you don't know what Silly Bands are consider yourself lucky :-)
