most parents, well almost all parents are giving their children money at young age.parents who just hand their children are abusing them and spending money in useless way.is it inappropriate for parents to continually give money to children.

It is important that children carry money in their pockets for emergency. Like when they get lost or hungry or something. But this should be done in moderation. If we can teach our children how to earn money then they would learn how to value it more.

If the children asked for money in order to used it for something they need but if they are just asking for money for something that they want then its only up to the parents to decide if they will give in.

Well yes and no, I agree that children have to learn to value money, but I think it's OK to give a little allowance.
