Educating children in the field of investment will of course be very profitable for each parent and their children, because if parents have prepared their children's future well, of course parents will be able to live their lives well and not think too much about it. of the assets they have collected because they have mentally prepared their children to be able to properly manage the investments they have built, but if parents do not teach their children about investment then whatever assets they leave behind will of course easily run out. because of the fault of their children who do not have an understanding of investment.

I think there is nothing wrong if we teach our children about investment even though they are not yet old enough to understand investment, because when they have entered adulthood we will certainly be able to easily teach investment to those who already have a little understanding of investment.
Educating children about investment is indeed quite good, but we have to look at the child's age first, because if we teach investment to children who are not yet responsible then the effect will be too big. The age at which children grow up and develop more responsibility is not always the same because there are children who are slower to develop. Introduce investment slowly and they will find out for themselves how the journey goes because directing children doesn't necessarily mean they like it.

There is nothing wrong with what parents introduce to their children, but parents must see the child's readiness to direct things. Preparing maturity in earning money is good so that children can be better prepared when facing real life after they grow up. However, the direction in introducing something must be done on a scale so that children get the complete information.
