Financial Education – A Global Perspective
Continuing social, economic and political change over the last five years has meant that the need for financial capability in young people is even more pressing. In many western counties issues surrounding increasing levels of personal debt, crashing markets and their effect on pensions mean that there is a greater need for individuals to take a more active and informed interest in their own financial future.
This article looks at various initiatives for teaching children about money around the world.

Education – A Parent’s Responsibility
One would be foolish to think that our education system meets the requirements of every child that enters at the tender age of five or six and leaves after thirteen years. However, some parents actually think that our schools are totally responsible for the education of their children. Parents who believe this may be putting their children at a disadvantage.
Without question, the majority of what a young child learns will take place in school, but there is also much more that children will learn, and must learn, outside the classroom. It is my opinion that some of the most important lessons a child will learn are taught in the home. This means that parents have a responsibility to be active in their child’s education.

If this sounds like your situation, you need to be sure you know what you are getting yourself in for before making the final decision. This full-time work, part-time studies strategy sounds really good in theory, but you will definitely face a lot of different challenges once you are in the thick of things.
