Volunteering takes up our time, energy, and sometimes, money. But why do people still do that? Here are the reasons:

Volunteering is good for others. There are many people in need. Governments and professionals try to meet everyone's need, but it's difficult for them to do it all. That is why some people who need help. If people only think of themselves, the world will become a cruel(无情的) place. But when we try to help each other, we can help make our planet a better and happier home.

Volunteers and volunteer groups can bring food for hungry people, provide homes or clothes for those who need them, protect wildlife and natural areas. They can help people learn to read or do better at school.

On the other hand, volunteering is good for yourselves. You might get in return for your giving, for example, getting more active and healthier, spending time doing what you really care about, and having fun!

Some families think that everyone in the family should do housework, and that kids shouldn't be paid for doing so. The supporters (支持者)however, believe that kids should get paid, and that the money they get will help kids learn important skills of how to use it.

But for those who choose to give the money, it can be a headache decision on how much they should give, especially in these difficult economic(经济的)times. A good idea is that you can keep records of how much you spend on your child daily for two weeks and then decide how much you should give according to the average daily amount. Kids can start receiving money around ages 4 or 5, when children start to understand how money works.
