    She deserves a raise.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    Remember to pay her a salary not an allowance. From the age of 7-17 you can deduct almost $5000/ year tax free.

    That's awesome. My 3 year old little boy wakes up and the first thing he says to me is Good morning daddy, can we play scrap metal today? .. Love hearing that.
