Summary: Family and Financial Literacy Through Internet Technology.
Review: I wrote Kids, Parents and Money for the family experience. Different ideas for different parents to use at different times. The on-line workbook could have been printed and sold seperately, that certainly would have been more profitable for me. But writing this book wasn't about me profiting, it was about you profiting. The Internet provides us all with a great opportunity. The workbook gives the reader an interactive tool to enhance their family experience. There's bits of useful information throughout the book for all families. Read it with a highlighter and then implement some of the ideas in your own home. You'll see immediate results. Good Luck!

Summary: Get a life!
Review: If you want your kids to earn every penny they have than this is a great book. If you are less militant than this book is way to extreme. It is very biased towards having the kid EARN every penny they get. I believe that some money should just be given to them.

Rating: 1 stars

Summary: Teaching tool for parents, teachers, grandparents
Review: It's a complex world today and kids somehow seem to have distorted notions of the value of money. It's no one's fault but many families could help themselves with this refresher course on financial basics. Stawski's ideas on how to educate kids about money make sense, whether your kids are very young or teens. This is a user-friendly book that includes worksheets you can use whether you have one kid or a houseful. Everyone in the family will benefit from this book!

Review: The author has done a great job with designing a practical and helpful book about money. Used properly, the lessons in this book will teach children the most essential "real world" lessons today; the value of having control of your money.

Summary: Get a life!
Review: We expected a useful guideline for parents. Instead we found a money regime that is unbelievably extreme. Willard Stawski recommends paying kids to do just about everything - pay them an allowance to read books, for example.

It may have worked extremely well in his family - good luck if it has - but I find the underlying money-centric values quite disturbing.
