How much to pay neighbor kid?

I am a firm believer in teaching my son to not work for less than he's worth. I feel like that should apply to all kids. The neighbor boy wants to mow my grass this summer. It's a decent sized yard that takes me about 45 minutes to mow. He asked for $10 a time to do it. That seems really low to me. What do you guys think? How much more should I give him? I don't want him to start out under valuing his work or himself.
