22、ney. Common topics include setting the pocket money， learning to save， and deciding on expensive purchases. The goal of most parents is to teach their kids how to manage money wisely. The goal of most kids is getting money to spend. How can families balance these goals?“All parents hope theyll raise

23、 a money-savvy kid, wholl grow up to be an adult wise in their money use.” says financial (金融的）planner Peg Eddy. The key is letting kids learn by having a little money of their own.The Tidier family in Denver found the best way to teach about money was to let their kids earn some. Their son, Ryan, 1

24、7, has been helping with their garden since he was 8. Now he has been able to save $7,800. Ryan has come to see the value in making his own money even when other kids are given money by their parents.Learn Now, Save LaterMoney skills are an important part of becoming a successful adult. David Brady,

25、 anotherfinancial planner, says, “Young people today will have much more responsibility for their financial future than their parents or grandparents.”Brady does remind kids. “They shouldnt be thinking about money all the time，” he says.However, they should understand basic rules for earning, saving

Then she paid the debt off slowly herself. “Now every time I use it, I know that it comes from my own pocket,”

29、 Giselle says. “That gives me a sense of responsibility for my actions.”Different kids will have different styles when it comes to money. Teaching them how to usemoney doesnt have to mean setting strict rules. When children like Ryan and Giselle have their own money to consider, they can learn to se
