Default Re: Would You Use Kids' Money to Pay Debt?

If the debt incurred on the Visa was for child expenses or a mandatory survival means, I would borrow the amount of money from your tax credit, pay off the debt, then replace the money with interest to each child's account. If the Visa debt is from frivolous spending, you need to leave the children's money alone and tough it out.

It's very expensive to raise children. However, your children need to be paid back in good faith.
