[quote=Anonymous]Kids don't really need to know that. You have no idea what they want to do with that information. My child overheard us talking about how much the house was worth, and for a while tried to use that to justify us buying them anything they wanted ("But the house is worth a million dollllllars.") The things to address are why they are asking. Are they insecure about something -- know of a kid in a housing crisis, for example. Then reassure them. But my comeback when they want something and say "but you have a lot of money" is "We have a lot of money because we don't just buy every darn thing out there". And at that age, they may absolutely share it without thinking.[/quote]
