[quote=Anonymous]Not at all. My kids have no concept of money. They see us spend $100-$150 on groceries each week and think that a $100 Lego set should be no big deal. They broke the TV - an accident, but preventable if they had been following our rules. We took them to the store to look at TVs and they saw how much they cost. We could afford a new TV if we wanted one, but it seemed like a bad lesson for them. We offered then a new TV in lieu of Christmas presents or they can wait until we feel like buying a new one. They chose to wait. [/quote]
