Educating Children For Financial Matters
Financial literacy may give freedom to the children to make smart decisions
The importance of financial education cannot be denied. Those of us who lack financial literacy often end up with empty pockets at the end of the month, with no savings for any emergency. Such a life is very difficult, not because of a low income or lack of money for emergencies, but because they have not been trained financially. Even if a financially disabled person earns thousands of dollars, they will still not be able to live properly.
Therefore, it is important for parents to teach their children about budgeting as soon as they grow up and for them to calculate their monthly expenses themselves. This will give the child practice from the beginning of understanding how much money they have and how they should spend it for the month. Out of this amount, they should set aside money for social activities with their friends.

Reserve the monthly money for the children according to their monthly expenses and for enjoying with friends. Ask them to organize their monthly expenses according to the format below and help them with this activity.
