In America, parents want their children to do something they can. For example, they tell them how to use money wisely(精明地) and teach them to save up money. If the children want to buy something, they can use their own money. Parents will tell them what they should buy and what they shouldn’t. Parents also tell their children to make a plan for using money. When children use their money, parents often tell them to share(分享) with others. In this way, the children can learn to be helpful.
In America, people often sell some of their old things. So the children often put the old toys in front of their houses. If people buy them, they can get some money. Some children help others wash cars or sell newspapers to get money.
