Availa^e^^^^ COUNTY EXTENSION 1 Homemakers’ || Corner Do you remember, the very first time you had a nickel to spend all your own, how carefully you decided what you would do with it? Young children develop ideas about money early in life. Children learn first about money from those around them in the home. Many values and attitudes formed before school age will stay with them for a lifetime. The child who "has every thing" may become the adult who expects the world to sup ply his every need. Most families cannot, financially, provide a child with every thing he wants in the market place. Therefore, he needs experiences in selecting goods and services that will fill his needs. You should: Help him learn to make choices —Help him learn to follow through and accept responsi bility —Teach him to plan for the use of his resources —Give him experiences in the world of money —Develop his concern for others If your child is being brought up in a home where love and service, honesty, thrift and the willingness to work are considered virtues, then he will develop a feel ing of responsibility for the use of all his resources. He will know that life is not Bear Creek Briefs 1 !*WHiWw»ww +*** I By Randal Willis At the home of Mr. and Mis. Jack Grindstaff last Sun day morning there was a lit tle dilemma around 6:30.
