Summary: Money Parenting 101--from 3 to Youg Adult!
Review: When I was raising my kids, there were NO money parenting books available. Now that my kids have kids, I've worked closely with my grandson on developing his money skills. In $mart Money Moves for Kids, you'll read about Frank, and about my kids--how we taught them the basic principles of smart money moves in the job market, investing, allowances, saving, spending and sharing. There's great info on weddings, buying cars and creating the entrepreneur in each child. When it's time to leave the nest, I've created a checklist to see if your kids are really ready for the big leap as well as what to do if a boomaranger shows up on your doorstep again. The chapter on the Internet is invaluable--websites for certain areas are throughout the book, as well as a specific chapter dedicated to websites in a variety of areas.

I truly wish I had a book like this--the good news is that you do--whether you are a parent or grandparent.
