| I'll be the first to admit my children don't understand the value of money.
When my five-year-old left hot pink texta marks all over the beige carpet of a holiday apartment recently, I explained – perhaps in a slightly shouty manner – that it could cost me hundreds of dollars to have it removed.
She just shrugged and said, "So pay it, then."
Grrrrr.
I'm totally up for any ideas of how to teach my kids how the world works, and how to manage money in a responsible way. And that's exactly what US mum Essence Evans is doing with her daughter.
