Default Re: Kid's Personal Finance Skills Come From Parents

Maybe you can help me with a question. My family hardly talked about finances at all, which I regretted later in life. So, I want to be more open with my children.

How do you address topics like salary, net worth, and home value? On one hand I want to be able to speak freely, but on the other hand I'm not sure its good to throw these numbers around with children.

Does it have to do with waiting until the right age? Or, am I just programmed into avoiding these topics because of my own upbringing?
