We know that normally a young person will be carried away by fashion, by friends, by momentary tastes, that can make them spend on useless and unnecessary things, hence it is prudent, on the part of the adult, to control any economic movement he makes. </p>\n<p>If we give a young man a large sum of money, we should in principle make him earn it. That is, that he deserves it, that he does something productive to earn it. It is proven that people value more the things that cost them to reach, to achieve.</p>\n<p>The other thing is, if you give him money you should know what he should use it for. It is customary for some parents not to ask for accounts and never to know what their children spend their money on.</p>\n<p>When we give a lot of money to our children, we are usually trying to make up for some shortfalls. So check your child's reasons for asking and your reasons for giving. You're sure to find the root of a problem.</p>\n<p>Finally, if you give your child a large sum of money, do so after your child has demonstrated a mental maturity capable of understanding that money is used for necessary and useful things in life and that it will not create addiction and dependence.</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><br></p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"pk2vd7nzw","appParentAuthor":"alaisguineasis","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
