Dexter H Faulkner

Good money habits take years to learn - bad money habits can lead to painful and costly problems. We have all made our share of errors! Why not give your kids a head start?

Teaching your children godly principles is one of your main responsibilities as a parent (Deuteronomy 11:19).

His children were fairly young, but his simple method could be adapted for older children. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
