[quote=Anonymous]Keep them off social media as long as possible. Have them do something to help someone less fortunate every month. Monitor their friends. Teach them common sense. Teach them to respect and honor their elders. Teach them basic living and household skills like gardening, cooking, cleaning, budgeting, etc. Limit screen time and focus on real life events. Spend plenty of time together. Model positive reactions to negative things. Always show gratitude. Don’t compare yourself to others Teach the value of money from a young age. Instill a love of learning. Create an independent adult through direct parenting/helping you when they’re young. Teach them to have conversations with people that don’t center on themselves. Teach them to live in the moment and not worry about tomorrow.[/quote]
