Honestly I wouldn't want my kids to be involved with bitcoin because there's too many bad paths that could be followed through this community.
Misleading ads, gambling, drugs... Just a few. Then also there's the unrealistic financial expectations, the false financial narratives... The belief that one can make it without even working... While its true that you can make it with crypto just by investing funny money into a shitcoin and being a little lucky, it's not a right principle to teach.
I want my kids to learn that their labour should be rewarded fairly and that all labour is essential to moving society forward. Even though employers often take advantage of workers too much, we have to understand that if everyone was a "bitcoin trader" nothing would ever happen. So I'm just thinking to keep my kids away from BTC for the longest time possible and maybe let them discover it on their own way later when they have income to invest too.
AT best maybe I could include it in a discussion about savings. Nothing more.
