PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY AS FINANCIAL ADVISORS

I think I started learning lessons about being a good person long before I ever knew what basketball was. And that begins in the home, and it starts with the parental influence. 

Julius Erving 

POWER TRUTH 

Train children in the right way,
    and when old, they will not stray. 

Proverbs 22:6 NRSV 

Parental responsibility regarding financial advice is important—to become the first financial advisors regardless of their economic status. When a child learns well from their parents, the chances are that their future money decisions can be healthy. Some disorders are avoidable if parents take the initiative to allow their children to see through their financial decisions, whether good or bad.
