What do you do to get pocket money from your parents? In Western countries, many children do chores to get pocket money. They usually start to do this when they are 10 years old. School students often do chores on the weekend.
Young kids only do easy chores, so they don't get much money. But that's all right. Many of them only want to buy candy. They help wash up after dinner and feed the family cat or dog.
When they get older , they want things that are more expensive than candy. Then they have to work harder! They often wash the family car, cut the grass, walk the dog or cook dinner.
