Chores
Rudy was 11 and wanted an allowance, since all his friends got one.
His parents suspiciously asked what these friends did for their money.
Rudy admitted that they did chores, like trash emptying & lawn-mowing.
His parents talked it over and agreed to give Rudy an allowance.
Rudy was happy to hear that he'd get $10 a week to sweep and vacuum!
