How to Handle Children’s Demand for Branded Things!
Children mostly get attracted to what the world shows them. So, the present day children demand for Branded Things. There is nothing wrong when they ask for brands. The problem is - When they do not value the money that is spent to buy them. When they demand for a particular brand not for its inherent value or goodness but for competing with their peers.
This can be controlled if a few things are followed in the house-hold right from beginning to bring some monetary discipline in children :-
Never try to show that you can buy anything they ask for – 1 Even if a 2 years old cute kid asks for not so expensive things, don’t make him feel my parents buy me anything I ask for. The awareness among parents has to be right from the birth of the child. The child does not understand the cost or value, for him it is just a fact that my parents can get me anything that i ask for.
Put them the habit of earning their own luxuries – 2 If children ask for something specific let them know that it will be given to them against their next good results or so (Unless it is too expensive for you). This is to let them know that they have to earn their luxuries just like the rest of us and for them the responsibility is studying.
When they get money as gift put it separate, away from them - 3 Ensure that whenever the children get money as gift it is to be deposited with the parent till at least they finish class 10th. The parents have to be accountable to gain the children's trust by putting away the money in a separate envelope marked with the child's name and not using it for any other purpose. Occasionally when the parents feel right the children can be allowed to use the money out of their savings after discussing the need.
Let children take up odd jobs around the house - 4 This teaches them the hard work that goes into earning each penny. Also if it is a regular job that the child takes up like dusting every day, etc. it ensures that you deduct the day’s pay from their salary if they miss out even one day. (Except when they are sick or out on school project)
Take them with you for grocery and vegetable shopping - 5 Take the kids of above 10 years with you for grocery and vegetable shopping. Make them calculate and pay the bills. This will help them know how expensive it is to run a normal household which they normally take for granted.
Help them understand the difference between necessities and luxuries - 6 In this series then let them know the difference between necessities and luxuries. Tell them your responsibility is to ensure that their needs are taken care of their wants, like the brands. They have to earn and save.
