We all want to give our kids the right lesson and want the best for them. As our lifestyle and living status is different, so the way of parenting is also different. So what a millionaire would teach to his kids must not be taught by a low income parents. It may sounds wired but this is the truth and this is how the would is running.
Teaching kids comes from need and giving them the way of living. As so called rich and poor parents have different life choices and way of living so it is very normal that their teaching and parenting would also be different.
From my understanding there are few things which taught by the relatively rich parents.
The first thing I believe is they taught about 'money function'. They tend to give their kids the basic knowledge about how money works, why people are paid differently, how to improve financial condition etc at the early stages. But relatively poor parents tend to avoid to talk about money most often.
Believing in quick result and magical change: They often taught their kid that some day some magic will happen and their fortune will change forever. Rather, they used to give the the understanding that they have to try hard to achieve something. Whether the other parents tend to depend on the fate, I believe so.
Knowing about money and asset: As money is a good tool to them which brings luxury, so they also taught the kids that money is a good thing. And trying to accumulate money is not bad. On the other hand, you will notice that poor parents teaches their kids that money is a bad thing and being love with money is not good for life.
Increase income and let money work for you : Poor parents tend to teach to live a simple life and adjust with small income. But rich parents used to teach kids how to improve life income and how other means can help them. There is nothing wrong to increase your money.
Prefer to give the time which have a real value: Poor people prefer to teach the philosophy of life and other understanding to their kids. But riches are different. They give priority to the real valuable thing.
I don't think that all the life lessons given by rich parents are good and the poor parents are bad or vice versa. Rather I think, all those lesson are helpful to build their life. As they are living life differently so they have different life priorities. They have different life problem. And to solve those and make a way is surely differently. The important question is, what lesson we get from our parents and serves us well in life? If we can find the answer, then it will be easy to teach our kids the right way.
