Ages 7 and under
With children having no shortage of spending options it is essential to train them in how to handle money before they succumb to spending beyond their means and falling into debt. Proverbs 22:6 instructs that a child should be trained "in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
By the time children leave university many will have accumulated debt which may not be repaid until they are in their 40s. The next verse in Proverbs (22:7) tells us that the borrower is slave to the lender. Teaching your children about how to handle money is a number one priority. Make sure your children don't get into the debt-trap.
