Hello Greenlight Team,
I’d like to suggest a new chore payment option: Threshold-Based Allowance.
Right now, kids can either:
  1. Get a percentage of their allowance based on the percentage of chores completed.
  2. Get all-or-nothing, only if every single chore is done.
The threshold system would combine these:
Parents set a minimum completion requirement (ex: 70%).
If the child completes 70% or more, they get paid based on the actual percentage completed (e.g., 85% chores = 85% allowance).
If they complete less than 70%, they get nothing.
Why this helps:
Teaches kids that effort = pay, just like real life.
Holds them accountable: in the workplace, if you only do 70% of your job, you don’t get 100% of your paycheck.
Builds realism: in the real world, if performance consistently falls below expectations, you can lose the job entirely.
This option strikes a balance between rewarding effort and teaching accountability, while giving parents flexibility to decide the right threshold for their family.
Thank you for considering this improvement!
