Today's children get lots of messages and values from television and from friends. They are encouraged to buy things they don't need. What they need is an understanding of the value of the dollar.
How do children learn the important facts of life? Most schools do not teach them. It is up to parents to help their children.
To learn about money children need to have some. Early on, parents often handed out money on an as-needed basis. But experts say paying certain amount of money each week is the best way to teach children the meaning of money, how to use it and how to plan.
Your child is ready for some money each week around age 5 or 6, when he gets to know the relationship between money and shopping and asks you to buy him things.
But how much should the parents give? Some experts suggest giving one dollar for each year of age, but Dr Olivia Mellan disagree: “I think 5 dollars a week is too much for a 5-year-old, and 15 dollars is probably not enough for a 15-year-old.” “What's right for your child depends on three things: the child's level of
development, how much you can give, and what you expect him to pay for.“
No matter how much you give them, children will soon feel they need more. But Sharon M. Danes, a professor at the University of Minnesota, insists that children don't need a raise each year, “There's no lesson to be learned when children expect an increase just because they are a year older,” she says. “What
they should learn is how to be good money earners, savers and spenders.“

如今的孩子从电视和朋友那里获得许多信息和价值观。这些都在鼓励他们买下他们不需要的东西。他们所需要的是对美元价值的理解。
How do children learn the important facts of life? Most schools do not teach them. It is up to parents to help their children.
孩子们是怎样学习到生活中重要的现实呢?大部分学校不会教他们这些。全靠家长来帮助孩他们的孩子。
To learn about money children need to have some. Early on, parents often handed out money on an as-needed basis. But experts say paying certain amount of money each week is the best way to teach children the meaning of money, how to use it and how to plan.
为了学习有关钱的知识,孩子们需要拥有一些钱。刚开始时,家长常常根据所需来分发钱。但是专家说每周给孩子一定数量的钱是教育他们钱的意义、如何使用金钱以及如何计划用钱的最好的方式。
Your child is ready for some money each week around age 5 or 6, when he gets to know the relationship between money and shopping and asks you to buy him things.
在你的孩子五六岁时,他们就开始意识到钱和购物之间的关系并且要你给他们买东西,这时,他们就已经可以自己支配钱了。
But how much should the parents give? Some experts suggest giving one dollar for each year of age, but Dr Olivia Mellan disagree: “I think 5 dollars a week is too much for a 5-year-old, and 15 dollars is probably not enough for a 15-year-old.” “What's right for your child depends on three things: the child's level of development, how much you can give, and what you expect him to pay for.“
但是家长应该给孩子多少钱呢?一些家长建议孩子几岁就给几美元。但是Olivia Mellan博士对此并不同意:“我认为一周五美元对一个五岁的孩子太多了,而且十五美元对十五岁的孩子来说可能不够用”“该给孩子多少钱决定于以下三点:孩子成长的阶段,你能够给多少以及你希望他花多少”
No matter how much you give them, children will soon feel they need more. But Sharon M. Danes, a professor at the University of Minnesota, insists that children don't need a raise each year, “There's no lesson to be learned when children expect an increase just because they are a year older,” she says. “What they should learn is how to be good money earners, savers and spenders.“
不管你给他们多少,你的孩子很快就会觉得他们需要更多。但是 Minnesota大学的教授Sharon M. Danes坚持认为,孩子的零花钱不需要每年增加,“他们什么也学不到如果这些孩子只是因为他们长了一岁就得到更多的钱”她说,“他们真正应该学的是如何合理有效地挣钱、存钱和花钱”。
