Day 211 - Son turns 11 - thinks of owning his own business

So my son says to me this week while we're eating his birthday cake (just the family little celebration after dinner), "I was thinking. What kind of business could I start - and what MONEY bank would that come out of?"

[And I think to myself, "I don't know. And, I don't know," are NOT good answers.]

I pretend needing to chew this melt-in-your-mouth cake - to give me more time to think. I need to scan the Kids' Bank Book for answers to stuff like this, I decide. Didn't it say something about kids and their businesses? about hiring them for work around the house?

"Hmm, good question. Let me think about that and we'll discuss it tomorrow."
