When my 10-year-old wants to buy something, she suddenly sees EVERY helpful gesture as a way to earn money. And we have exchanges like this.

So, it might turn out this way: the busy overworked mother ends up doing it herself,
to prove a point…The gecko gets fed, and the daughter is still waiting for the mother to
give in. That’s cute!…
You are frighteningly close to the truth!
: )
the mother does the “chore” [sorry, best word i could think of, chore] but kid is waiting for money and starts screaming this over and over like a broken record-
money i need it, oh i want some candy, so pay me, yay bade and dube,
so the mother gives in and pays the kid 10$ to shut her up. and also in hope the 10$ will cover a few more works.no such luck, when asked to take trash out, mom’s fined 10$.20. and for each chore mom is fined, with an extra 20 cents added to the payment. see this happened! i asked mary to feed sherry and well, she asked for 10$ i explained she didnt get it, you know the rest
