Don't let your kids become a " money pit "
By the time kids primary & secondary school, they'll be pulling at the purse strings on a daily basis with request for everything from clothing to concert tickets. The advice is ; Don't Make it so easy for them. " If money is too easy to get, kids get the idea that they can have anything they want without caring about the family finances. "
