Giving pocket money to children is very common in many countries. Discuss both advantages and disadvantages and what your opinion is.

Nowadays, in many nations children are given extra
money
for their expenses. In my opinion, it is a good trend as it encourages children for
future
savings and they can buy what they need.
This
essay will discuss both pros and cons and will lead to a logical conclusion.
To begin
with, children can make savings for their
future
with the extra funds received from their parents.
That is
to say, if they have saved each dollar received every day, at the end of the day they will be saving huge amount which they can use in their
future
career planning.
For instance
, in China, approximately 55% of students are using their pocket
money
to set up the business when they are young.
Likewise
, children can fulfil their requirements with the pocket
money
.
In other words
, with that pin cash it is a piece of cake to buy whatever they like, so that they do not have to beg and depend on other to afford it.
However
, with the extra fund children can engage in bad habits. When they take the
money
, no one knows what they are doing with it. Some may be buying tobaccos, alcohols and even drugs. To make the matter worse, they may use that in committing crime like murder.
For example
, according to The University of India, average number of children is using pocket notes in consuming alcohol and drugs. In conclusion, with the help of extra cash, children can make
future
more distant in especially degree
further
savings and can afford whatever they want, but with the same cash they may be involved in bad behaviours.
However
, with the proper guidance and support of family that
money
has more advantages than disadvantages
