ITL222: Should You Give Your Children an Allowance?

Listen Later

On this week’s episode, I answer a listener question on allowance, tithes, and savings.

 

You should become a person who studies parenting whether you have kids or not because it has to do with employee/employer relations, sales, and almost every form of society.

  • Parenting is the fulcrum that society tilts upon.
  • If we want our children to achieve great things as an adult, we must be responsible, calm, and able to provide an understanding of how things work.

    •  

    We don’t give the boys money for anything.

    • They do chores and their reward is they get to live in our house. That is being part of the family.
    • We sometimes give them gifts, but if something is not taken care of, it’s not just about the money, it’s about what the money represents.

      •  

      God commands us to give.

      • If we look at money as a blessing, giving the first of it is saying we trust there will be enough.
      • I have lived very close to the bone a number of years and I must say that when Polly and I started tithing, it was really at the insistence of Polly.
      • As I began to learn how to tithe properly, I realized we were never without.
