T. Rowe Price’s 2017父母,孩子和金钱调查,在全国范围内采样了1,014名8至14岁的父母,他们的孩子分析了与孩子的财务习惯相关的父母态度和行为。调查发现,孩子的积极行为和期望通常与父母决定让孩子决定如何自行储蓄和花钱以及建模良好的财务习惯有关。相反,当父母拥有金钱历史上令人不安的历史时,更经常看到孩子中的财务习惯。

T. Rowe Price的高级财务计划师,三个孩子的父亲罗杰·杨(Roger Young)说:“有自由管理自己的钱的孩子似乎拥有更好的钱行为,并且对父母的花费更为真实。”“我亲身知道直升机育儿的诱惑,但是在金钱方面,这种方法有缺点。四分之三以上的孩子管理自己的钱,说他们与父母进行了金钱对话。给他们现实生活中的金钱经验带来了概念上的财务,并将其付诸实践。

“We know that kids’ money habits are formed before they get to high school and that their parents are often their most influential teachers. It’s unsurprising, but still saddening, that parents with troubling money habits seem to be passing them on to their kids. These parents are hit with the double consequences of their own financial mistakes and the prospect that their kids may be set up to relive them.

“To prevent this, parents may want to consider openly discussing their finances with their kids—the good, the bad, and the ugly. Kids who are aware of their parents’ bankruptcy are more than twice as likely to say that they are very or extremely smart about money compared with those who weren’t aware of it (68% vs. 30%). So I don’t think they are destined to follow in their parents’ footsteps,” says Mr. Young.

T. Rowe Price通过每周与他们谈论金钱问题来鼓励父母投资孩子的未来。调查发现,每周至少与孩子讨论财务主题的父母更有可能让孩子说自己对金钱很聪明(64%比41%)。父母用来发起金钱对话的经常主题包括:

•预算返回学校购物(47%)

•弄清楚购买销售商品可以节省多少钱(45%)

•进入实体银行(41%)

•讨论大学的成本(41%)

•讨论为什么他们没有休假(34%)

为了帮助父母进行金钱对话,公司创造了MoneyConfidentKids.com,为孩子们提供免费的在线游戏;专注于财务概念的父母的提示,例如目标设定,支出与储蓄,通货膨胀,资产分配和投资多样化;以及教育工作者的课程。
