Saving yourself some tantrums


Today’s trending world, parents have to suffer a lot to maintain the balance of there budgets. We parents want to give our little ones the best of all. I see it as the biggest challenge for parents to fulfill there children’s list of desires. When we fail to fulfill they get fustrated and that irritation will soon turn in to tantrums and later into disobedience.

So parents can use my mom’s technic to overcome such a problem. Mom teached us to use the saved money to purchase our desired items. One more tip which I can give, which I had tried myself on my 9 year old. Which I call “A Budget Allowed”. Whenever we go for shopping I allowed her a budget, with which she can buy her toys, comics, gifts as her desire. I was amazed at the result I got, she started behaving like a responsible toy shopper, she learned to share, save for friends gifts calculated by herself each time. Later on she began to plan in advance and she realise, she has to get her toys from her budget so she started to make better use of it rather than toys only. Trust me guys I felt empowered of her and gave her a hug and appreciated, I feel kids need that more than money.


I shared this with my friends, fellow moms, they practiced same and her son who is the same age of my daughter he buys toys n save money n next purchase he buys for himself and his cousin’s and lastly he saves and bought a gift for his mom. Isn’t it good behaviour they learned caring same time. And eventually they will learn to manage money.

Try on this am so sure parents will see their kids change into superKids. And most important of all, this will bring an end to the embarrassment you had to deal with your kids trantrums at shopping, bcoz now your kid will be responsible and understand he is already provided with the allowance and it’s his responsibility now to spend on his desires.

Money Management for Kids

My childhood always filled with lots of dolls and toys as most of the relatives lived abroad, when they visited me they bought toys, I never lack toys. In my childhood, I never cried for toys but ya chocolate, I always asked for it.
I and my younger brother used to stay together with my mom. Ok! back to the topic of budgeting, earlier when I was 10 my mom taught me to save money and buy useful things, Either it will be chocolate or it will be useful school stuff. I often argue with my mom, why can’t she buy for me so I can save my money, but she never did.
Slowly me and my younger brother learned to save money and spend that on us, we both enjoyed buying chocolates, pickles (nalika achar), stickers and icecreams.
By the age of 14, I and my younger brother started buying pets like dove & rabbits, breed them and resell that with profit. This way we got a hobby to grow our savings and express our love for nature. With that savings we used to buy gifts for mom on her birthdays.

My motive to share my personal stories with you lovely people is to make you understand, rather than facilitating your kids with every desire use this opportunities to teach them life skills. In this fast phased society we all had awe stuck in the biltz and glamour of shopping shrees and offers. So financial freedom will be the most important life skills we all need to teach our kids, which starts with saving.
