We expected a useful guideline for parents. Instead we found a money regime that is unbelievably extreme. Willard Stawski recommends paying kids to do just about everything - pay them an allowance to read books, for example.

It may have worked extremely well in his family - good luck if it has - but I find the underlying money-centric values quite disturbing.

This is one way of doing things. Rating

If you want your kids to earn every penny they have than this is a great book. If you are less militant than this book is way to extreme. It is very biased towards having the kid EARN every penny they get. I believe that some money should just be given to them.

Teaching tool for parents, teachers, grandparents Rating

It's a complex world today and kids somehow seem to have distorted notions of the value of money. It's no one's fault but many families could help themselves with this refresher course on financial basics. Stawski's ideas on how to educate kids about money make sense, whether your kids are very young or teens. This is a user-friendly book that includes worksheets you can use whether you have one kid or a houseful. Everyone in the family will benefit from this book!

Great book for teaching children the real value of money Rating

The author has done a great job with designing a practical and helpful book about money. Used properly, the lessons in this book will teach children the most essential "real world" lessons today; the value of having control of your money.
