[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2771762, member: 15054"] Sounds like you are doing the same exact things we did for our children. Made them work and save and they purchased their wants like the crappy wallyworld toys.. Figured they learned . Both kids had saved into the thousands before they were able to drive.. Then they met girls and friends that smoked.. They do not read the fine print in rental contracts. They will now before signing. And you can change things in the contracts you sign if the other party signs it also. School of hard knocks teaches them well. I think always having money kind of spoiled them (they worked for it).. once they got out in the real world Things got tough or their priorities were off kilter when the girls and bad influence friends came into the picture. Teaching money sense is easy. Teaching the fit in to the crowd people are users type of thing will need to be taught even more. I never gave into peer pressures, never had a crowd I felt I needed to fit in with.. I floated my own boat down my own river. Good luck to ya! Teach him well. [/QUOTE]
