Thanks for your insights, everyone, and sorry about the response delay, but I've been on vacation. Hubby and I have decided to start giving him a dollar a week. He has to clean his room and pick up his toys when asked to get it.
genuinegirly...that sounds terrible. I don't hold that view of an allowance...I guess my view is to let him know that things cost money, and that he may have to save for it. He may be a little young right now to fully comprehend that, but I think he is starting to get it a little.
Again, thanks for your input!
