Message: [QUOTE="TrentsMomm, post: 669902, member: 15111"] I am teaching my son money management. I pay him weekly what I make and he has his own (play) check register book which he "pays" our bills with. But, when he gets old enough to gamble, I think I have already did my job (I hope). I know money management in gambling is a little different but at least he will have the background not to gamble away what money he cannot afford to lose. I really don't know what the age limit should be on gambling but this is my theory. If you work and pay taxes you should be able to use the money however you would like (although 16 is to young for gambling.) It is your money and no one should tell you how to spend it. That's where good money management (early in life) comes in very handy. BTW, Trent has had credit card offers through the mail (once or twice) but I'm sure they wouldn't go through with it. Maybe if he gets another I'll see if they will.:D [/QUOTE]
