Talk to Your Children About Today's Economy
Filed under: Personal Finance, School Age, Adults
Kids pick up on what's going on much more than we give them credit for. Have an open discussion with your children about what is going on in the economy, what it means to the United States, to the world, and to your family. Discuss worst case scenarios and invite them to share their fears, if they have any.
Keeping your kids in the know fosters an excellent, open environment and also lays the groundwork for possible times when you'll have to turn down their requests for goodies with the words "Sorry, we can't afford that right now."
