It’s not a bad thing to want financial stability, dare I say, financial comfort for my child when they are an adult lol

SuzzieMoonbeam getting all judge-y assuming just because I’m comfortable talking about jobs and how money works with my kid means I’m teaching them money is more important than finding themselves or happiness, or that it must mean I’m unsupportive of who they want to be.

Pffftt. It’s not one or the other Moonbeam. 🤨

I don’t know what you’re telling your kid Moonbeam, but when we talk about dreams it’s doing research on what to expect of that career path and what it involves to be financially sustainably successful doing that thing.

But hell no, I don’t vaguely tell them they can be whatever they want to be and I’m absolutely not going to romanticize living low income as if money doesn’t matter.

If you don’t teach your kids what you are teaching them. You are failing them. Money is not the be all end all but it’s sure damn important they know how to live within their means and the decisions they make now affect their future.
