“Money doesn’t grow on trees!” It’s a phrase most parents know all too well, especially with the final weekend of the NC State Fair coming up and our wallets already bracing for impact. It’s hard to say no to those sweet faces, but sometimes, as parents, guardians, and caregivers, it’s a word we have to get comfortable with. That’s why today’s Therapy on the Go with Kim Dillon, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with Therapeutic Partners, PLLC, and our host Madison is all about the art of saying “no” and teaching our kids to better understand the value of money, how quickly it can disappear, and how to make it last.
Today’s Takeaway: “We are saving our wallets today so we don’t have to save our credit cards Tomorrow! So spend time with your kids at the fair, not your savings.”
