My Son And His Allowance, Well The Lack Of It

I try to give my 12 year old son an allowance but he never seems to want to do his chores. LOL..what kid wants chores? I always find myself reminding him that he always wants to buy things and without money, it is pretty hard thing to do, but at the same time I want him to save his money for something special that he wants.

There are a couple of options out there. I could open him a savings account. Never to early to learn about banking. There is also this prepaid Visa card called PAYjr Visa Buxx card which is available for children 13 year old and up. This card allows your load your child's allowance onto a prepaid Visa. Chores are kept track of by using the Chore and Allowance Management System. This system is available to children 12 and under as well. Will this be the answer to my dilemma? I don't really know, but I think I am willing to give it a shot.
