\nOne of the best ways children learn about the value and significance ofmoney is through regular saving.Even small children appreciate thepurpose of saving when they can buy toys with money from theirpiggy banks.  \nEventually,children realize that working brings in money.To reinforcethis important feature of the real world,some parents pay youngchildren to do chores around the house as well as give them anallowance.Many parents,to discourage materialism,also encouragetheir children to donate some small amount of their savings to goodcauses.  \nOlder children,like Little Bill,find they can also earn money throughjobs outside the family.In Money Troubles,Little Bill is inspired to buya telescope after learning about astronomy in school.(Not,it must besaid,because he's suddenly become a serious scholar.Instead,he  \ndreams of becoming famous.He'll discover a new comet,and it will benamed after him.)The telescope he wants costs $100;he has $47.87 inhis bank.To start earning the rest,he washes a neighbor's car,thencollects cans and bottles—until he notices another boy,obviouslypoor,also out scavenging.Little Bill leaves his own cans where theother boy will find them.  \nLittle Bill has realized something important:other people may needmoney more than he does.He takes this lesson further by droppingthe telescope idea,donating all his savings to the school’s food drivefor the poor...and becoming “famous”for contributing the most food.  \nThrough his unselfish acts,Little Bill has learned that giving to otherscan be more satisfying than acquiring a possession he can do without.And he has taken an important step toward understanding what itmeans to be part of a community.  \nAlvin F.Poussaint,M.D.  \nClinical Professor of Psychiatry,Harvard Medical School
