Children's money concept is too heavy. We should not think it is a bad thing. We can develop children in a good direction and help them establish a correct view of consumption and money. In addition, we adults must do what we say and do what we say. Don't say one thing and do another. This is not good for educating children.
What to do if children have too much money sense
1. Parents can set some tasks to let their children earn money to complete. Parents can give their children a certain amount of money as a reward for the tasks they usually ask them to complete.
This method can not only achieve the financial education of parents for children, but also let children get access to money and gradually understand the thinking that their own labor can be exchanged for money. And children have enough autonomy to control their own money, and they can choose to use that money to buy something they want.
2. If a child attaches great importance to money, we can teach him that money can be used for other things besides buying things, such as donating to charities and helping children out of school. We can tell him that money can not only buy toys and food, but also help many children to cultivate the idea of helping others. Children can grow healthily and happily only when they have a kind heart and a charitable heart!
3. The most important thing about money is that children's material needs have not been met, or they may need parents' attention. Parents should pay attention to the way of communication with their children, respect their children, listen to their opinions, and discuss with them when things happen. Parents should pay more attention to their children, actively understand their needs in all aspects, and let them grow up healthily both physically and mentally.
4. In front of children, parents should not shy away from talking about money. Of course, the role of money should not be overstated, and children should not be indoctrinated with the theory that money is everything.
Parents should take the initiative to tell their children that money is hard won and that money plays an important role in daily life. Let children know that the money at home is limited, and they can't buy anything they want. Before spending money to buy things, they should first consider whether they should buy such things. Only in this way can children realize the unique value of money at an early age, thus forming a correct awareness of money.
What to do with children who are too vain
In response to this situation, parents should start from the children's own situation and avoid high expectations when making requests and choices. At the same time, children are encouraged to make efforts within their own control, recognize their own potential, see their own progress, reasonably adjust their goals, and find ways to surpass others through their own efforts.
Children's love of comparison is not all a bad thing. In fact, comparing with others shows that they have a competitive mentality at that time, and want to reach the same level or surpass others. If we can grasp this mentality, let children compare in learning, talent, willpower, good behavior, etc., and correctly guide children to work hard and dare to catch up, it will help psychological development. Parents need to find a good combination point and invent good behaviors and habits by themselves.
In the face of children's vanity, we can't stop it by force, let alone beat it with words, because vanity is a manifestation of children's inferiority. If it is not solved well, it will easily lead to his rebellious psychology, making children less confident in front of others.
What to do with children's extravagant spending
1. Parents set an example to influence their children. Every move, word and deed of parents has a great impact on children. For example, parents spend money lavishly at ordinary times, which directly affects their children.
When you act improperly as a parent, it is difficult to educate your child from the perspective of behavior. It is also ineffective to educate your child from the perspective of words to save money. If you want to teach your children by example, parents should first establish good living habits and let their children participate in the middle. For example, if you can use daily necessities in your life as much as possible, you will not buy new ones. Towels that really don't work can also be used to clean the floor.
2. The amount of pocket money can be reasonably determined according to the actual situation of children, and it can be distributed to children regularly. Parents teach their children to spend money in a planned way, where to spend it, how to spend it, and how much to spend. They let them think for themselves, give them autonomy, make plans, and do not spend money at will.
