Lesson 2

Teach them the value of a dollar

A common complaint of most parents is, ‘my kid doesn’t know the value of a dollar.’ If you, the parent, are paying most of their expenses, how would they know? Think about how you learned about the value of a dollar. Growing up, you gradually had to pay for items and hopefully earned more and more money to accompany and account for those expenses. This lesson will help you teach your child the value of a dollar.
