Avoid Raising A Spoiled Child: Interview with Author Ron Lieber – Episode 28

New York Times personal finance columnist and author Ron Lieber talks to the Modern Dads Podcast about his book, The Opposite of Spoiled, Raising Kids Who Are Grounded, Generous, and Smart About Money. We talk about what is means to be spoiled and the steps parents can take to avoid spoiling their child. Ron also gives advice for parents thinking about allowance, giving, birthday presents, and saving for college.

The Parents’ Phrase Book author (and L.A. Dads Group member) Whit Honea joins again to suggest that the opposite of spoiling your children is not depriving them of life’s experiences.
