Money and Children

in #parenting7 years ago (edited)

Introduce children with money since childhood is actually legitimate. In order for him to understand that getting something takes money. And the money does not necessarily exist. It takes patience and effort that is not easy.

Awareness of the value of money began to appear in my 8-year-old child. He realized he had to save first if he wanted to buy something he wanted. Before the money is collected enough, usually he will not express his wishes. And what makes me proud is, he also saves for his sister.



"Mak, this is enough to buy a tough book in store last month" "oh yaaa? How much?" "80ribu But for the new adek there are 12 thousand." "What's the book for me?" "Adek asked to buy a puzzle, some 12 thousand, mak?"

Silence. Mak tears

So also if you want to buy a rather expensive ice cream.
"mak, akak want to buy icecream, but just enough one. May i use your money mak?"

Actually for kk also want mak money, neuk. Buti .. Ah .. Never mind .. As adults later you will understand, why not all wishes and entertain mak follow.
