Kids are also part of the family, and we have seen parents who don't hide their struggles from their kids, while others do the opposite. Which is right, and why? At what age should parents expose their children to the family struggle?
Children are part of the family. Yeah! You got it right. As part of the family, what do you think about the families struggling? Hiding it from them? That wouldn't make sense either. Just like husband and wife doesn't hide anything from each other, that's how the kids should made known their source of feeding. Why? To answer that question, let's take a look at what's happening on web 2 social media blogging platforms. For example, Tiktok, Facebook, YouTube, etc. We see minors making waves there. Acquiring wealth for themselves and their family members. Where do you think they learned it from? Probably from their parents. Because, for you to see a child of 2 to 7 years performing well on social media or on movies, it's as result of training by their parents or guidance. That means, they exposed those kinds to their struggles and helping them to join the moving train at their younger age. My dear, nothing is to be hidden when it comes for family struggles. Instead, it's better to let your kids know what you are doing to take care of their bills. Who knows, one might pick interest and become your helper. Not only that, our economy today is not smiling with you haha. So, it's very important to teach our kids what we are doing and help them learn to do the same thing. Because when they started making money, it will reduce us some stress.
According to the Holy book, it says that a certain young Man named Timothy learned the word of God from infancy. To me, their no specific age to let your child or children knows about the family struggles. Let them learn it from infancy. How? While praying together with them, include your daily struggles in prayers. Let them keep hearing you telling God to bless your struggles in other to feed them well. Why going out for struggling, let them know what you are going to do. Sometimes take them along to your office, shop etc. But if not possible, let the hear you talk about your work or businesses at home. So that as they are coming up age, they already knows the family struggles.
Personally, my parents didn't sat me down at a particular age to tell me about their struggles rather, i saw them doing it because they where transparent and that helped me a lot today. I assisted my late mother then in her business and today, am a hustler. I learned it from my late parents. My little daughter with me here knows what am doing, she has learned everything about hive block chain. Only age is the barrier because she's still a minor. She joined me in mining telegram games because i thought her not minding her age. Guess what? She's helping me out. So, don't hide your struggles from your children. Make it open because they're helpers and blessings from above to you all dear parents.
If you are doing any illegal business, please i begg of you. Don't let your kids know about it. I repeat!! Hide it from them. Don't expose these young starts to danger.
