Is your 16 yr old going to have a job to help pay for the car, insurance, gas and maintenance?

Lol wellllll… yes he plans to get a part time job to help with gas insurance and maintenance but I already know I probably won’t take much, if anything. #badmom

Take it, put it in an account and then give it back to help with college expenses or have it as an emergency fund for him

This is the best possible solution. It teaches him to budget for things he needs/wants in life, plus you can still be a “good” mom in your eyes. Still, no shame in putting his money towards the bills if you need the help.
