Ever since I was young I have always looked up to my parents. I admired them for the way they were hard working and for how they helped make sure I had the best life possible. I believe all of the parenting that they did has led me to become the person that I am today.
My hope is that I can have a lasting effect on my children the same way my parents have had on me. My journey will begin in just a few months as my wife is expecting the birth of our first child in October and I could not be more excited.
Because of this announcement and the fact that tomorrow is Mother’s Day I want to make this carnival all about parent’s and children. I have selected the best articles that both parents and children can use to help advance their financial lives. I hope you enjoy all of these amazing articles as much as I did.
