How much should an 11 year old get paid for doing chores?
I have an 11 yr old myself. I pay her according to the job, such as $3 for the kitchen floor to be swept, washed and dried, properly. 50 cents for taking in the garbage can after pick up, she is also not allowed to make money doing things in the house if her own room is not clean, this way she always keeps her room clean and doesn’t want to be doing chores for no money, it’s a system that really works well. hope this helps.
I think some chores just need to be expected and then some can be paid, I do think that children these days(including my own) think that $20 dollars is not alot of money. I don’t pay mine $20 dollars for anything but I did spend $30 each for good grades. I think it depends on the child and the situation. Good luck!
Nothing ,it is also there responsibilty to make sure the house is clean. Don’t make housework a reason to get paid or else they will always expect it. Tell your kids not cleaning is not an option and that you never got paid for doing chores. But when they are finished then you say you did an excellent job by listening and here is some money for obedience. Pay according to what you can afford.
