Charitable giving is an important financial lesson for children, but how do you teach it?

This week, Ron Lieber, author of “The Opposite of Spoiled,” joins the Well Book Club to talk about charity and kids.

“Children are inherently selfish, so the question is how do you instill a charitable nature in a child?” asks Mr. Lieber. “It’s fantastic to give money away during the holidays, but I like the idea of making it a regular part of the family life.”

Do your children have a say in the causes you support? What are the first steps toward teaching children the value of charitable giving? Join the conversation and tell us how you have taught your children that charity begins at home.
