I almost never asked for pocket money, and if I gave them, then "stretch", after discovering where I want to spend. Mom supervised so that I don't spend it on any battilossi. So I was not comfortable to ask her for money. But did not give their mother not because of pity, but because they used to save all, then to buy a better thing, so I could look no worse than others, I knew it and she tried not to ask for her allowance. All battilossi the age of 13 I earned myself. The only thing that I every day were given is lunch money, which I don't always used as intended
