Well, you probably won't like this answer but- You shouldn't get paid. Your parents feed, clothe & take care of you. You can help clean up the house that you also reside in. If you're set on getting an allowance here's an option: ask your parents to give you an allowance in exchange for buying your own clothes. Or ask if you can do xtra jobs (on top of your chores) for some money. Good luck!

You are on the right path. Chores teaches you responsibility. It also prepare for you to live on your own when you grow up to be an adult. If there is something you had your eye on let your parents know and find some agreement of work/chores/grades etc. in exchange for what ever it is that you wanted. You will start earning money soon enough. For now, enjoy being a kid.

Everyone has to do chores, it's part of being in a family. You shouldn't expect to be paid for that. But, I would suggest that you ask your parents to make a list of things you can do to earn extra money.

It could be that your parents simply can't afford to give you an allowance; Or they may not realize that you're interested in such a thing.
Be warned, however! If you get involved with money, you may find yourself learning some hard lessons about effort, doing things you don't want to do, and the ever dreaded "building character".
I'd suggest bringing this idea up with your parents by saying something along the lines of "I'd like to earn my keep and help around the house more; Maybe earn my fair share?"...that'd probably work!

when I was your age and wanted extra spending cash I went around the neighborhood asking ppl if they needed their cars washed (i would have a bucket, rags and soap) other times I would push the lawn mower around asking if I could mow their lawns.. there are many things you can think of to make some extra money for yourself... you just need to get out and ask... if you were here i'd have ya wash our cars ;-)
