If it makes the "I didn't know about oil change" people feel better, I didn't realize that "themildone" meant:

The Mild One until just now.

I kept reading it: Themil done? Them ild one? Them il done?

like, who's Themil and what have they been doing?

my parents were very old school (and I'm old, btw). There were girls my age - sometimes - doing some of this, but it was pretty unusual where I was raised. I agree with you, t hough, everyone needs to know the basics. I fear that some of is being lost (I was at work, once, talking about changing my tire and the young women were like...change a tire? I don't know how. I'd just call for help!
I grew up in the rural South, so it wasn't so unusual there, but the world is changing. I had a young coworker recently who didn't know that you had to dial 1 before a long distance number on a land line. Further questioning revealed that she had no idea who Lynyrd Skynyrd is.

It was my parents, and I'm sure my mom read it in some magazine. We had ours year round. We got allowance, but if we wanted anything extra that our allowance couldn't afford, we had to do extra chores. They used to give cash, but then they decided to teach us about checks. So we would do chores to "add" to our account, and we could let it sit there if we wanted, to build it up to something big. We not only learned about checking, but we learned the value of money that way. Huge lesson that should really be taught to all so they don't have to learn it the hard way.
I do the same thing with my kid. He has daily chores he does for an allowance (he gets docked money if he doesn't do them), and weekend chores he does just because he lives there and doesn't get paid for those. But if he wants more money I have a huge list of chores and their value that he can do at any time to pad his income. That's what he did last weekend :)

I like the idea of virtual money...converting the spending money portion of his allowance (he has three banks and has to divide his earnings up between all three...savings, spending, and gifts). I'll run that by him. Basically all that ever happens is he decides he wants to buy something online so he gives me the cash and I use my credit card. I stash that cash in a bag, and give it back to him as allowance. I think I've given him the same dollar bills for about two years now.

Noblis and I'm not even turning on my panda :bode:
They're really just insulting at this point. If this were earlier times I'd slap those Noblis with my glove and challenge them to a duel.

you write a check with no money in the bank to cover it. then hope you beat it to the bank with the money.

Like, say Kroger takes 4 days for a check to clear, you got 4 days to cover all that beer you just bought.
You can also make a little rip...uh...nevermind. Prolly shouldn't teach people how to float a check, lol...
