[quote=Anonymous]What is the point of forced donations and forced saving? I want my kids to learn to give because they want to give; that's how I learned. And saying "this is your money, only it's not" isn't teaching them how to handle money. I know this is going to sound vengeful, and I swear I don't make parenting choices so I can tell my kids "I told you so," but they learned to save because they wanted something and couldn't afford it at the time. Worked especially well when he'd bought a ton of Pokemon cards and then something he'd wanted and been saving for went on sale. He'd have had enough money in his savings if he hadn't bought Platinum Dungheap the week before. [/quote]
