[quote=Anonymous]Yes. They are much better now at 5 and 8. I tell them to put it on 'birthday or xmas list'...and save allowance. When they were younger they wanted instant gratification. We also are in the stores a lot less together. When they were toddlers we'd hit the train tables at B&N and our local toy store so they were around toys all the time. Now they are good about picking a toy out for a friend and leaving without anything for themselves. IT took work. First grader has also been doing money segments at school and we are teaching more about the value of things, spending wisely and saving. My parents did this for us and I always had excellent credit. You can't start too young.[/quote]
