TikToker Whitney Ainscough believes it will teach her child to understand the value of money and financial responsibility.
TikToker Whitney Ainscough, 30, revealed that she even lets her 11-year-old daughter have a bank card. The mum, from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, said people think she is "absolutely mad" for wiring £500 onto her eldest daughter Cora's bank card each month.
Last year, as reported in the Mirror, she told followers she spent over £10,000 on her kids at Christmas.The mum admitted she monitors whatever Cora buys to make sure she doesn't purchase anything she shouldn't. She said she never experienced anything similar when she was younger but wanted to spend her money on her children as she was in a good state financially.
Ainscough's comments divided people on the social media platform. Many argued the amount was too much for her children.Icam140 added: "Jesus my 14 year old gets £60 a month! We live a very fortunate life but that seems very excessive" What’s her incentive to go get a job at 16?" While Katei posted: "I’d personally put it in a savings so interest gets added and there will be a huge chunk for her when she turns 18 or 21.
