yes that's right, financial education must start from home, I didn't get that from my parents but I have to do that to my child, seeing how Chinese people educate their children to be very disciplined in finance in my environment and most of my Chinese colleagues also say the same, skills in managing finances and turning money over since childhood become a very big capital in making financial decisions in adulthood, I totally agree with this.
Any thing that a child sees the parents doing is what they will copy while growing up so this issue of financial management is not an exception you don't expect a child from a home where the parents where reckless spenders to be financially responsible the children too will grow up and have problems saving money because whether you believe not not some important behavior or parents has a way of robbing off on the children because children learn from the parents in what ever thing that the do.
We should know as parents that we have a great role to play in the future of our children that is why we should also be a good role models to them and how we are going to do that is through making all aspects of our life's to be worth emulating so that our children can grow up and some of these attributes will be found on them because the environment that a child grows up matters a lot in the development process of any child
