Think what happens if you give a kid candy whenever they ask. Or even if you think they might ask. Not good for the kid's health, not good for the kid's character, not good for your communication with the kid. Communications about money are the toughest things to get working right. Listen to the lyrics of 'R. E. S. P. E. C. T.', this is not a new phenomenon. Also, more along NML's point here, 'Hit the Road, Jack!' Having money isn't a reliable means to measure character, or security, or the ability to care for others. *How* we manage money, that tells a lot about character. Thanks, NML! “it is very likely that it will all end in tears” This is also bad for the man involved. Think what happens if you give a kid candy whenever they ask.

Thanks, NML!
