Episode 3: Childhood Chores, bribing and the marble jar

Although what kids spend it on might have changed over the decades, pocket money itself has stood the test of time. What also endures for parents, is how to harness the power of pocket money, and navigate the difference between rewards and bribes. In this episode, Dr Elizabeth Klibey chats to mum-of-three, Keeley, about how money can be a motivator for good behaviour. Together they discuss how Keely’s ‘marble jar’ is used to incentivise her three children and teach them vital life skills.
