Pocket money and piggy banks have been used for years to impress upon the children the importance of managing money. However, this practice is usually done with teenagers and with very little to support this learning. Children learn about the transactory value of money very early on in their lives. So why do parents wait to teach them about money? The age-old argument about preserving their innocence doesn’t quite cut it. They’re already learning about money from their environment, if not implicitly. By introducing the topic, parents are not taking away any innocence but providing context to what they are already seeing all around them.
There are many reasons why parents should address this topic early on, like the following:

Understanding of Consequences

Children need to learn that not only does money have value to buy things but there are financial consequences to all spending decisions. This is a crucial part of their development.

Decision making

Children at an early age learn the art of decision making. This affects them in every sphere of life and is set at an early age. It would be helpful to guide this learning when the child is impressionable and still developing these core habits.

Understanding the value of work

Children need to understand that nothing comes free. The things they buy and the gifts they get are results of hard work, not handouts from an ATM.

Delayed gratification and impulse control

These values are very important in anyone’s life. They affect all types of decision making and can cause severe life changes. Hence, the need to enforce these values early on and set the right foundation for the future.
Many parents feel like this conversation is too stressful to bring up with their little one. However, this stress is felt by the adults who are struggling with the issue, not the child intent on learning everything about the world around them.
Money is an integral part of life which affords us the right education, a good environment and social security. Therefore, money management is not a life skill that should be ignored or put off. So when is the right time to start impressing the right values about money? Right when a child stops putting it in their mouth.

‘Breastfeeding is natural, why be shy about it’ Evelyn Sharma

Taking a strong stand against trolls over her breastfeeding picture, Evelyn Sharma says ‘Breastfeeding is natural, why to be shy about it’
On Instagram, B-town actress Evelyn Sharma posted an image of herself nursing her 2-month-old daughter, Ava Bhindi, and talked about cluster feeding becoming a part of her daily routine. Her previous post of a similar picture was well-received a month ago. Netizens took offense to her pictures and slammed her for posting her private photos on social media.
The ‘YJHD’ actress while talking to a publication defended herself saying, “I want to share my journey as a new mother with my friends and fans.”. It’s important for me to keep my social media person and not just a work profile.” Addressing the trolling that breastfeeding pictures of mothers get, the 35-year-old said, “Such images show vulnerability and strength at the same time. I find it beautiful.
Breastfeeding is one of the most natural and healthy things to do. And it really is why women have breasts in the first place. So why be shy about it?” Evelyn hopes that the post will be able to encourage young mothers and even nudge their partners to be more supportive: “Breastfeeding is much tougher than people think. When you start out as a new mum, it is often physically and mentally exhausting, particularly cluster feeds.
I shared my story to let mums out there know that they aren’t alone in this.” Talking about newly embracing motherhood, Evelyn said “There’s a statue in Mumbai that says, ‘A child gives birth to a mother’. I’ve passed by it almost daily and it left me confused every time. Now I understand what it means. Motherhood has changed my life forever.”Evelyn Sharma gave birth to her daughter Ava on November 12, 2021.

Britney Spears is she writing a memoir?

Britney Spears made headlines last year due to her dramatic personal life. Now that Britney is a free woman, she’s ready to tell her own story. On January 11, 2022, Britney posted a picture of a typewriter on Instagram with the caption: “Shall I start from THE BEGINNING???”
Britney Spears was finally released from Jamie Spears’ conservatorship on November 21, 2021. A few weeks later, on her 40th birthday in September 2021, she announced her engagement to long-time partner Sam Asghari. She has hinted on Instagram that she is working on a memoir in recent weeks.

She speculated in her post that she is writing a memoir. Several others expressed their excitement over the news, as well as their encouragement and support.

Britney’s journey so far has been nothing short of a roller-coaster ride, from having a successful career at a young age to living a troubled personal life. However, the artist has remained strong and now plans to live her life according to her own terms. Her conservatorship ended in 2021, and she also accused her family of not being there for her or supporting her while her father was in charge of her conservatorship. According to her earlier Instagram post, she will not be working on her music any longer. The decision to stop making music was Britney’s way of saying, “F*ck you”, even though it only benefits her family by ignoring her real work.

In her new memoir, Things I Should Have Said, Britney Spears’ sister Jamie Spears shared her side of the controversy surrounding her family.
