3 Taboo Phrases: What Parents Shouldn't Say to Their Children If They Don't Want to Doom Them to Poverty

25.11.2023 20:06

Even quite wealthy parents can “program” their child for poverty by constantly uttering certain phrases.

We tell you what parents should not tell their children so as not to condemn them to poverty.

"No money"

The child will think that it is impossible to achieve what you want without money.

Always explain to your child in detail why you cannot buy him what he wants at this very moment.

If you say without any explanation that you have no money, and then fill your shopping cart with groceries at the store, your child will not understand why you are refusing him.

"We didn't live richly, so there's no point in starting."

With this phrase you “program” the child for a bad future, instilling in him that poverty is a tradition in your family.

"But we earn money honestly"

An analogue of this expression could be the phrase: “It is impossible to earn money honestly.”

With phrases like these, you instill in your child that financial well-being can only be achieved by dishonest means.
