I strongly agree that Children should receive an allowance for performing household chores and helping out around the house . This practice can teach Children about financial responsibility and a strong work ethic . For instance , an allowance can teach Children about the importance of budgeting and saving money , which can help them develop good money habits and financial responsibility . Moreover , it encourages Children to work hard and take pride in their work , which fosters a strong work ethic overall , providing Children with an allowance for completing household chores can help them develop important life skills and foster independence , responsibility and a strong work ethic . That 's why I think Children should receive an allowance for helping out around the house .
