Kristan Leatherman, Creator of RaisingMillionaireBabies.com, Teams Up with Love and Logic Institute's Jim Fay to Help Parents Teach Their Kids About Money


Their new book entitled, "Millionaire Babies or Bankrupt Brats? Love and Logic Solutions to Teaching Kids About Money" is getting praise from parents and the press.

Chico, CA, January 27, 2009  (PR.com)

 

Love and Logic facilitator, Kristan Leatherman teams up with Love and Logic’s Jim Fay to help parents teach their kids about money. Their new book is entitled, Millionaire Babies or Bankrupt Brats? Love and Logic Solutions to Teaching Kids About Money is getting great reviews.

 

Bloggernews.net reports Leatherman’s new book, “…offer(s) a very clear, and very sensible road map. A road map that many parents could use that would avoid many of the ’sink holes’ that may of us parents have found ourselves in while dealing with our children.”

 

Blogger and Christian mom, Laura Willliams wants her readers to know, “This book provides means on how to teach a child about finances that benefit them and gives them confidence as well as helps parents establish a budget not only for the children but for themselves and the family as a whole.”

 

And book reviewer Dan Barnett of the Chico Enterprise Record says, “The first part of the book is devoted to spelling out the principles of "ove and logic" by teaching personal responsibility in the handling of money. The second part, "Raising Fiscally Fit Kids," builds on the first and examines spending, saving, borrowing, earning, investing, and sharing.

“The book is replete with everyday examples of parent-child interactions and offers a wealth of sometimes surprising suggestions for handling money challenges.

Allowance, the authors suggest, is really about helping children spend money and shouldn't be given as payment for chores; chores, in fact, are renamed ‘contributions’ and shouldn't be compensated if they're part of the daily family upkeep. If a kid flakes on cleaning his or her room, and mom has to do it, the child will receive a bill in the next allowance envelope (the consequence).

 

“The bottom line? One day, when parents must rely on their children for care, those good fiscal habits will be invaluable.”

 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Bubble Proof Your Kids in Today's Bubble Economy

Colorado Springs, CO (Summer, 2008) With gas prices at an all time high, the value of the dollar at an all time low, and homes foreclosing at alarming rates, the economy is on everyone's minds these days. That makes teaching kids about money early and often more essential than ever to prepare them for the fiscal responsibility they will need as adults. Will our future generation experience the joy of abundance or the devastation of debt?

Kristan Leatherman and Jim Fay of the Love and Logic Institute is pleased to announce their newest book, Millionaire Babies or Bankrupt Brats? Love and Logic Solutions to Teaching Kids About Money.

This book will teach parents how to:

  • Put an end to the constant begging to buy
  • Deal with ungrateful kids or overindulgent relatives 
  • Teach personal responsibility and financial responsibility at the same time
  • Use allowance to teach kids to spend, earn, borrow, save, share and invest wisely
  • Prepare children for the global economy they will inherit

Millionaire Babies or Bankrupt Brats? provides an approach that allows everyone to reap the benefits. Children benefit because they learn how to solve their own problems, while gaining the confidence and capability they need to meet life's financial challenges. And parents benefit because they establish healthy control now, without resorting to anger or threats, and without the guilt of having to rescue their kids later when they should be financially independent. This book turns cents into sense!
