Moms Talk: How Do You Teach Kids About Money?

Post a comment to share your thoughts on how to raise financially savvy children.

Last week in Moms Talk (dads, you're welcome to chime in, too!), we asked you talk with your children about proposed K-12 funding cuts and teacher layoffs. Here's what you had to say:

  • Libby Turpin: "My kids, especially my first grade daughter, is very disappointed that music and art might not be offered next year. As of yet, I keep reminding her that no firm plans have been made yet, but we have to voice our concerns to the lawmakers. I also tell her that we will just have to make it up at home or elsewhere."

This week, we'd like to hear what strategies you use to raise financially savvy children.
