Did you ever wake up in the middle of the night and over hear your parents talk? Did you ever hear them talk about money? In most cases, your beliefs about money are based on what you heard as a child. These staircase conversations set a view for children about how they should view the world about money and other things.
I'm now making a concerted effort to teach my children to be abundant because abundance creates abundance in your life. I tested the theory with my 7 year old. It works. Define abundance to your children, but more importantly show it to them. Show them that you will give some of what you have to others, as it will bring abundance into your life.
Remember one thing, your kids believe whatever you tell them till they are 10-11. After that, they form their own beliefs. Plant the seeds you want them to grow for their future.
