Certainly by ages 15 or 16 a girl's growth is sufficiently stab- ilized to make a clothes allow- ance practical. And my parents explained clearly when my allow- ance started that I would have to budget, to take care of future needs. They are preparing me for college when I shall be away from home, on my own in man- aging my funds.
