Now, 406 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 4: let's take a listen to this week's money dilemma. 407 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 9: Hi, guys, wanted to write him with a bit of 408 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 9: dilemma I'm having at the moment. So my hobby and 409 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 9: I we've got a bit of opposing views on pocket. 410 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 3: Money for our eleven year old son. 411 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 9: So up until now, he's been you know, generally really 412 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 9: sweet and have for kid, always cleans up his room 413 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 9: and helps out with really basic things. You know, when 414 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 9: I ask him to do something, he does it, and 415 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 9: of course we give him when you know, what he 416 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 9: wants when he needs money, so a little tree, going 417 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 9: to the movie, something like that. I'm pretty keen for 418 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 9: this to continue. My thought being that it's important that 419 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 9: he's expected to help with household chores and not you know, 420 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 9: you don't specifically get money for those tasks. It's something 421 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 9: that you should contribute to the household. However, my husband 422 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 9: wants to up the chores, so make him do more 423 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,959 Speaker 9: and give him a certain amount of money as he 424 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 9: thinks this will teach him kind of a better value 425 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 9: for money and hard work. And we're at a bit 426 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 9: of an impasse, and I was just wondering what you 427 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 9: all think. 428 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 5: You know, what really excited to me is having people 429 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 5: who are actually parents here, because we have answered questions 430 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 5: about kids in the past, and neither of us I mean, 431 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 5: just the disease. Maybe the perspective is a little bit different. 432 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 7: I mean, our kids are much younger, but we mine 433 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 7: are like they're at the age where it's like, he's 434 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 7: a good example for my son. He was so scared 435 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 7: or not scared. He just didn't want to cut his hair. 436 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 7: So I said, you cut your hair, you'll get rewarded 437 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 7: with something. So now what he does is he's like, 438 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 7: I need a headcut to be rewarded. I think she 439 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 7: says there, she's like, he wants to up the chores. Yep, 440 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 7: I don't see if he wants to up it. I 441 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 7: think the kids should be compensated. 442 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: We're all about people being paid for the work that 443 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: they do. 444 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 7: Here on this podcast, he's happy if she's already happy 445 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 7: with him doing those those low lying activities, the ship 446 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 7: kicker activities, and then he's like, well, I want him 447 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 7: to do more important work. 448 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 3: At least you get paid for it. 449 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: Plow the plow the field or whatever. 450 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,439 Speaker 6: I kind of agree with you. I do think as 451 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 6: well that she's got this unicorn child. Oh ye, first 452 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 6: of all, congratulations on winning a lottery. 453 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 3: Write a book the. 454 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 6: Best kid, Yeah, because that does not happen often. I 455 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 6: grew up having to have like a star chart, and 456 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 6: so we had we had certain jobs. There was one 457 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 6: that we had a little plastic bag and we had 458 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 6: to fill it with weeds, and then you know, a 459 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 6: certain number of stars would then get you something that 460 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 6: you wanted at the end of the week, and that 461 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 6: then progressed when we were older, going into you know, 462 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 6: like year seven, year eight, we would get an amount of. 463 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 3: Pocket money was part of the cartel whipping. It's just 464 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 3: like his bag full of weise. 465 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 6: We definitely ask kids we needed to have some type 466 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 6: of incentive to get those jobs done, the shitty ones 467 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 6: like the cleaning the toilet, doing the gardening, washing the car, 468 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 6: things that we didn't really enjoy. And it was good 469 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 6: for me because it taught me, you know, you had 470 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 6: to if you want something, you got to put in 471 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 6: the effort. You've got to get the work done a 472 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 6: bit of discipline. But then also eventually, when I was 473 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,199 Speaker 6: in my early teens, I could then start saving for 474 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 6: money and I understood like how to use money and yeah, 475 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 6: so it was a good foundation for me. But I 476 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 6: do think the risk is if you've got a kid 477 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 6: who's already doing the work happily, like don't rock the boat. 478 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think on the work, they kind of answer 479 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 7: their own question by adding their like he wants them 480 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 7: to do more, then you get compensated. So the things 481 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 7: that he's doing for free, they're still free chores. 482 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 6: But the kid, the kid doesn't want to be compensated. 483 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 6: The dad saying you should be compensated. The kid's not 484 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 6: complaining work. The kid until he starts to understand take 485 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 6: an advantage, he's exactly yeah. 486 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 3: Then it's like then he's just going to be bitter. 487 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 3: He's going to start a union. He's not. He's going 488 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 3: to start a union. He's like a robot. Think of that. 489 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 7: Think of the knock on effects. It's going to start 490 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 7: a union. It's going to get his buddies over and 491 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 7: they're going to rally out the front. 492 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 3: I disagree, protest, get a pick. It going at some point. 493 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 6: I think, at some point asking for better conditions it's good, 494 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,239 Speaker 6: and it's good. It's good to have some type of 495 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 6: monetary exchange. 496 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think so. I think so they can learn 497 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 7: the value of money. That much that is, that's up 498 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 7: to them. How much money they've got, I don't know. 499 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 3: Look, if he. 500 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 7: Doesn't want to do the work money, If he doesn't 501 00:23:58,160 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 7: want to do the work, I'll do it. 502 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 5: We could all use the extra cash. 503 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,719 Speaker 3: Do I get pocket money? I can't remember. 504 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: See there you go, remember, don't give them any money? 505 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 3: Say that I would have. Yeah, I don't remember anything 506 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 3: any specifics. 507 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 7: Actually, yeah, my sister got paid for making the school lunches. 508 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 3: She's older. Her lunches were ship. 509 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: Paid those capo dogs. So I think, I just I 510 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,400 Speaker 1: don't know. Like, obviously we don't have children together or separately. 511 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 3: Would you pay a small child to come to your 512 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 3: house and do work? 513 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would. But I think also there are other 514 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 1: ways that you can be like as you were saying, 515 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: like with the star chart and stuff, there are otherwise 516 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: you can feel like you've achieved something by doing these 517 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: small things. So I think that, like, you know, rewarding 518 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: your child in other ways and if you're already kind 519 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: of like getting everything he needs if you if you 520 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: need to go to the movies or not needs to 521 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,439 Speaker 1: go to the movies. If you want to go to movies, 522 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: you give him money for it. You know, things like that. 523 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 1: It's like, you know, there's already this kind of like 524 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: really nice dynamic that you've got going on. I don't 525 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: think it's necessary, but it's a different story. If you 526 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: are wanting to start teaching financial literacy, and if that's 527 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: what you are want to do eventually, that's what you 528 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: want to do. Now you think that he's in a 529 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 1: he has capacity to understand that right now, then go ahead. 530 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: If not, I think it's fine to just kind of like, 531 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 1: because chores are expected, you're going to have to do 532 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: chorores the rest of your life. Yeah. So I don't know, 533 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 1: but that's just me. I don't have a single child, so. 534 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 5: No, I as a as a pet parent, she was attacked, No, 535 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 5: I agree. I think that the important thing is is 536 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 5: as an adult, I think you can really tell the 537 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 5: difference between people who had to work for things as 538 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 5: a child and people who didn't. Like I think it's 539 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 5: really obvious as you get older, the people who learned 540 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 5: those lessons and actually have to work for things, versus 541 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 5: the people who maybe were in more affluent situations or 542 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 5: their parents were a bit more cruisy and happy to 543 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 5: just let them do as they did. I think it 544 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 5: really ultimately raises two different types of people. And as 545 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,719 Speaker 5: you were saying, like, you come to a point in 546 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 5: life where unfortunately we all have to work for a living, 547 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 5: and so I think getting them to earn them pocket 548 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 5: money sets them up to understand the way that the 549 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,360 Speaker 5: world works. Like, in addition to the financial literacy benefits, 550 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 5: I think it really teaches you like there are shit jobs, 551 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 5: like sometimes you don't want to turn up and do 552 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 5: what you have to do, but you got to do it, 553 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 5: and so I think it really teaches those skills in 554 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 5: addition to as you were saying, like understanding that, you know, 555 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 5: the exchange between doing a job and earning money and 556 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,439 Speaker 5: the concept of saving that money up to purchase something 557 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 5: like those are all really good lessons. But I think 558 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 5: more than anything it helps I mean, I don't have 559 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 5: a kid, so I can't say, but having observed people 560 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 5: as adults, I think the people who didn't necessarily have 561 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 5: to work for things are often not as well adjusted 562 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 5: or as well equipped for the things that they have 563 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 5: to do later in life. 564 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, personal perspective. 565 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 3: I mean you can tell you that it's the ones 566 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 3: that didn't have to do anything with just like that guy. 567 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 6: Yeah one, the ones that don't bring frozen lasagna on holiday. 568 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,479 Speaker 7: Resilient, like I'm just going to buy fresh lazagna that. 569 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 8: Yeah. 570 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 5: So I think like it's and it's hard if you 571 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 5: and your husband, it's ultimately it's your kid and you 572 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 5: guys have to come to an agreement. Maybe there's a 573 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 5: middle ground where maybe it starts off as an optional. Hey, 574 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,479 Speaker 5: if you want some extra money to spend, you know, 575 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 5: we cover all the things that you need, We cover 576 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 5: what we've been doing. If you want a bit of 577 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 5: extra cash, you can earn that by doing a chore 578 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 5: and maybe you kind of can introduce it that way 579 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 5: and transition over see how it goes. 580 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 7: But I do like to teach them worth work ethic 581 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 7: because they can start like fifteen hour he's eleven. 582 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, a few more years and he's going to be 583 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 3: in the trenches. 584 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's going to be working at Red Rooster. 585 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 5: McDonald's absolutely triggering to think, I don't know but I 586 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 5: totally agree. I think not to be a little monotonous, 587 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 5: but I do want to talk about kids a bit more. 588 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: While we've got the experts in. 589 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 5: The room, I think you could never ask, might as 590 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 5: well take advantag So let's get into this week's juicy DM, 591 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 5: which actually caused some conversation at our family dinner this week. 592 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 5: Oh so, our listener said, I'm an auntie to two 593 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 5: beautiful nieces, but they are spoilt rotten by my brother 594 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 5: and his wife. The girls are twelve and ten and 595 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 5: are getting really obsessed with materialistic things, and I see 596 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 5: a real pattern of excessive spending in the girls. The 597 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,919 Speaker 5: other day, I took the girls to a movie and 598 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 5: to the shops, where they insisted on going into their 599 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 5: favorite shop, Mecca. They both found items that were over 600 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 5: one hundred dollars and expected me to purchase them for them. 601 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 5: When I told them that that would not be happening, 602 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 5: they had massive tantrums and got very upset with me, 603 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 5: saying Mum or Dad would never say no. I'm worried 604 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 5: my brother isn't teaching the girls good values around money, 605 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 5: and so my question is can I say something to 606 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 5: them or is it really not my place to tell 607 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 5: them how to parent. Will they get defensive and be offended? 608 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 5: It is their kids, after all, But I'm worried that 609 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 5: they haven't realized the lessons they're teaching the girls around money, 610 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 5: and they might need someone to give them a bit 611 00:28:58,800 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 5: of a reality check. 612 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 7: So yeah, I think, like, look, cland none of your 613 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 7: business as well, like, but also you don't want to 614 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 7: if you set the expectation what it's going to be 615 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 7: like with you, that's fine, but you can't really, like, 616 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 7: you can't really go and tell your sister or your brother, sorry, 617 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 7: how to parent that. 618 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 6: Well, it depends on the relationship that you have, Like 619 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 6: I guess there could be a situation where they could 620 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 6: be very responsive to getting that type of feedback. But 621 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 6: you would assume based on how I am, based on 622 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 6: how you are. Most parents out there, taking any type 623 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 6: of criticism from a family member is always going to 624 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:42,479 Speaker 6: end badly. 625 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, nine times out of ten, Like as much as 626 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 7: you can try and sugarcoat it, like, how are you 627 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 7: supposed to say your kids are spoiled? 628 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 3: Little shit?

I think, oh yeah, there's 631 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 6: no question that she is likely going to be these 632 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 6: children are going to grow up to being title little brats. 633 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, but like, also what sort of person is that 634 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 3: is the auntie as well? 635 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 7: If it's like what, like her value is obviously very 636 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 7: different to her brothers. 637 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 3: How is their upbringing any different?

It 642 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 6: doesn't matter how you've been brought up. Shouldn't be getting 643 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 6: a hundred bucks off the back of anything, not saying 644 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 6: I think like as a as a benchmark rule, like 645 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 6: I don't agree with it, but unfortunately that's not enough 646 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 6: to warrant you know, you stepping in and being like 647 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 6: you're being I don't agree with your. 648 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 7: Shit too, because all their friends could be getting Mecca 649 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,479 Speaker 7: and they were like, well mom and dad aren't here, 650 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 7: let's try and bum steer out. 651 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 3: You don't know, but. 652 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 7: I think, like it's not worth risking the relationship with 653 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 7: the rest of the family when they need to work 654 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 7: it out on their own. 655 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 3: They need to work out that their kids are spoiled 656 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 3: little shit on their own. 657 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 6: As like, as long as those kids are happy and 658 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 6: healthy and well fed.

So it could very well 670 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 5: be that mum and dad wouldn't spend the money at 671 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 5: Mecca or wouldn't do that, but the girls are just 672 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 5: trying it on to see. 673 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: Oh well, maybe be. 674 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 5: Said, maybe the auntie is gonna be like, oh else, 675 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 5: that's what mum and dad will do.

Like I think 712 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 5: you could just maybe bring it up and have the 713 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 5: conversation and see what happens from there. Because they also 714 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 5: think it's very valid for you to not want to 715 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 5: spend that money. And if you're like me and you're 716 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,479 Speaker 5: not sure what to do in that situation, I can 717 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 5: see how that would be kind of hard to handle. 718 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: Absolutely. I also think too, like, no one really needs 719 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 1: to worry too much. Like I totally get that, like 720 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: people's upbrings and stuff like really shape who they are 721 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: as a person when they go into adult life. But 722 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: a lot of our like the way that we are 723 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: and a lot of things we learn it does happen 724 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: in our lady years. So I have friends who have 725 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: like kind of grown up like this. Well, they probably like, 726 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: I don't even I only literally just learn what the 727 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: word mecca is personally. But I'm like, and you can 728 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 1: kind of tell. But some people grew up in you know, 729 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: really really affluent affluent is the world affluent house. 730 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 8: I did almost say it. 731 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,479 Speaker 1: They kind of you know, grow up in these really 732 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: absoluent households, and they don't really you know, I can 733 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:08,359 Speaker 1: kind of see the difference, but only slightly now because people, once, 734 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: you like, start mingling with other people from different walks 735 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: of life and different experiences and different everything too. That's 736 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 1: when you start kind of like your own like identity 737 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: and where you are in the world and where you're 738 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: placed in the world kind of like is shaped. So 739 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: I think that even if that right now they're spoilt, 740 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: I think that when they grow up and they start 741 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: mingling with different people, different social groups, meeting people that 742 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,760 Speaker 1: they really get along with but maybe grew up poor 743 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: and like just kind of being like, their eyes will 744 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: be open to like other experiences, and I feel like 745 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: you don't need worry too much about how they are 746 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 1: as children, because yeah, they could be manipulating her, they 747 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:46,240 Speaker 1: could be anything, but we all kind of our formative years. 748 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: This is not backed by science. I don't know when 749 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: the formative years are, but I feel like socially and 750 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 1: all of these things, it's kind of like, you know, yeah, 751 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 1: you know, late teens, early twenties when we start really 752 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 1: meaning different types of people from different walks of life. 753 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 1: So I think that, don't swear it yet. What did 754 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: the community have to say. 755 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 5: I'll do a really quick whip around, because as all ways, 756 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 5: we asked you guys, what you think on Instagram? If 757 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 5: you want to join us, you can find us at 758 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 5: ches and the money Aus. So firstly we said do 759 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 5: you think this person should say something? Sixty one percent 760 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,240 Speaker 5: said yes, they have good intentions, and thirty nine percent 761 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 5: said no, it's not their place to tell them how 762 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 5: to parent. Then we said, if you said yes, have 763 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 5: you got any advice on how to bring it up? 764 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 5: And so we had a few kind of very different perspectives. 765 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 5: Some people said you should be able to discuss these 766 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 5: things with close family and some people said you absolutely 767 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 5: should not touch that with a ten foot pole if 768 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,399 Speaker 5: you want to keep a good relationship. So there's very 769 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 5: differing perspectives on that one, and I guess it really 770 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 5: comes down to what your relationship with your family is. 771 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 5: Have you spoken about these things before? One person said 772 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,959 Speaker 5: a really good, I think example of what to say, 773 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 5: and she said, discuss the tantrum that the girls had 774 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 5: in response to the word no, rather than making it 775 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 5: about the money and the other stuff, talk about the 776 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 5: behavior and what your experience with that was, which I 777 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 5: think is pretty valid and kind of going back to 778 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 5: what we were saying before. Then we asked, if you 779 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,879 Speaker 5: are a parent, what are some of the main values 780 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 5: or lessons that you tried to teach your kids around money. 781 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 5: One person said how you earn it and how important 782 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,399 Speaker 5: it is to save. Another person said that you need 783 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 5: to work for what you want, and somebody else said 784 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,399 Speaker 5: that money needs to be earned and should be spent, 785 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 5: but it needs to be spent based on our needs 786 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 5: and our values before our once, which I think is 787 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 5: really relevant, particularly to the idea of a twelve year 788 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 5: old dropping one hundred dollars in Mecca. And then lastly 789 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 5: we said tell us your two cents. Somebody said it 790 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 5: takes a village to raise a child. You can help 791 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 5: to teach them values too, which I thought was a 792 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 5: really nice take. It could be hard, maybe if your 793 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 5: values conflict, and I'd be interested to know what you 794 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 5: guys think as parents like that in regards to that. 795 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, like I suppose her value. 796 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 7: Well, again, we don't know if thin the kids were 797 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,360 Speaker 7: manipulative or whatever, but like I know, like my sister 798 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 7: and my parenting styles are very different. And look, some 799 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 7: of the things she does say I would agree with 800 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 7: and I could do better, but some things I don't 801 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,880 Speaker 7: agree with and I don't think that they work. 802 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:17,959 Speaker 3: But like, you've got. 803 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,280 Speaker 7: To try and find some common grounds somewhere because everyone's 804 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 7: going to be different. Every kid's going to be different, 805 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 7: so it does take a village. And like sometimes, like 806 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 7: I said, you take bits of advice from those around you, 807 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 7: but some you don't agree with it all and you 808 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 7: sort of just push it aside and try and do 809 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 7: what's best for you. 810 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, totally relevant. 811 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 5: Somebody said, my mum always said yes to me when 812 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 5: I was a child, and then when I got older, 813 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 5: I really struggled to save and to not shop. So 814 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 5: it's an interesting look at me needing impact for the 815 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,439 Speaker 5: flow and effects that that can have. Somebody else said 816 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 5: that kids can be fully want want want because of 817 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 5: social media and marketing, which I think is something that 818 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 5: I've really seen, like again with the mecha thing. My 819 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 5: nieces are a little bit younger than this listeners that 820 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 5: they talk about wanting drunk elephants, skincare and stuff that 821 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 5: you go, I don't have that. As someone who's nearly thirty. 822 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 5: It's crazy to me that you think that you need that. 823 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 5: Do you guys see that with your kids at all? 824 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 5: Them kind of mirroring. They're quite young, aren't they, so 825 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 5: maybe not. 826 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:12,479 Speaker 3: Much yea Marley's five. 827 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 6: I mean, it's crazy when she watches YouTube and she'll 828 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 6: be watching Gabby's Dollhouse and then after an episode there's 829 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 6: an advert for to buy a Gabby Dollhouse toy, and 830 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,280 Speaker 6: you know it just that little ecosystem is so crazy, 831 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 6: so well designed to make them want more and more 832 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 6: and more. It is it's hard work as a parent 833 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 6: to always say no. 834 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:35,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, I find like throwing them off the scent is better, 835 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 7: Like you'd be like. 836 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe like for your birthday next year. 837 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 7: Not let he gets a birthday, but you know, like 838 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 7: you know, if you're a really good boy, or for Christmas. 839 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 3: It was like, look, if you a really good boy, 840 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 3: you're right. 841 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,760 Speaker 7: To sounding you're telling what you really want, then you know, maybe, 842 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 7: but you're also going to look at you know, giving 843 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 7: to others and shit like that. 844 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, you try and move instead of just being like no, 845 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 3: you know yeah, YouTube is like bit shit. Yeah. 846 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,240 Speaker 6: When that person was talking about it takes a village 847 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 6: to raise a child, absolutely agree. But at the same time, 848 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,839 Speaker 6: I think the rules and the standards are very much 849 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 6: enforced by the parents, other family members and friends. They 850 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 6: then follow suit. So it's really bloody hard if you 851 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,720 Speaker 6: disagree at its core with how the parents are raising 852 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 6: that child. So that's where it's it's like you hope 853 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 6: that you would all be on the same page. I mean, 854 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 6: I'm very much sometimes I have to tell other family 855 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 6: members don't come over with a toy each time. Like 856 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,479 Speaker 6: my brothers for example, that are in a different states, 857 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 6: whenever they arrive, they bring a toy with them, even 858 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,839 Speaker 6: if it's not a birthday or a Christmas present. I'm 859 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 6: trying to build resilience into my children. I'm very much like, 860 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 6: stop with the gifts in the presence. 861 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 7: You don't want to say, do you know what the 862 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,760 Speaker 7: kids having this expectation is that you see that person 863 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 7: automatically get something, they're going to back you up because 864 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 7: ultimately they're your kid, right Yeah, I think like, yeah, 865 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 7: in that person who's like got the dilemma, it might 866 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 7: be worth just saying, hey, I didn't know how to 867 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 7: deal with this, how would you deal with it?
