How much lucky money should I give my baby in the New Year? Not as much as possible, so that children will feel happier.

Although the lucky money is very exciting and happy for children, with the development of the times, the lucky money is not only a kind of meaning and form, because it is mixed with other things, and how much lucky money to give children has become an annoyance for parents.

1. Comparison

First of all, the most serious phenomenon should be comparison. In fact, in ancient times, lucky money was not used for real money, and it had no practical use and was more symbolic. But now the lucky money given to children is real money, so the comparison will follow. In addition to the comparison of how much parents give their children lucky money, there are also comparisons between parents, just as parents are worried that their children will be laughed at if they receive less lucky money, and parents are also afraid of being "stingy" by others, but if they give more, their financial ability will not be allowed.

2. Interpersonal relationships

During the Chinese New Year, in addition to parents giving their children lucky money, their grandparents, grandparents and even aunts and aunts actually give them lucky money. However, because they all give real money, children are naturally happy to receive lucky money, but parents are very worried. Because they need to "reciprocate", that is, how much lucky money relatives give their children, then they have to give them lucky money to wish their children peace. It has gradually become a kind of human relationship, so many parents always tell their children during the Chinese New Year. Who gave you how much lucky money, be sure to tell your parents and let them prepare a "return gift".

3. Children are extravagant.

I still remember when I was a child, the lucky money was only a few tens of dollars. The children used it carefully and decided whether to buy snacks or toys. But with the improvement of living standards, there are hundreds of thousands of lucky money for children now, and more. Because the children are still young, the concept of consumption and money is still immature, so it is inevitable for children to spend money lavishly and even recharge the game. It is not easy for parents to make money, so in order to prevent it.

It is precisely because the lucky money given to children now has so many meanings, so how much lucky money parents give their children now has become a problem, which makes parents feel very distressed. How much lucky money is appropriate for children in the New Year? Let the children feel the joy of the New Year and be full of happiness?

In fact, children know their financial situation more or less, so if parents give their children too much lucky money in order to give them "face", their children will also have certain psychological pressure. On the contrary, children don't spend much money and don't care too much about the amount of lucky money. Therefore, parents will give their children lucky money according to their own financial ability, and children will be the most relaxed. They won't have too many psychological worries when they buy snacks and toys with lucky money, so parents and children will be happy.

Like parents "recycling" lucky money for their children, it is undoubtedly depriving children of the joy and happiness of the New Year. Therefore, since parents want to give their children lucky money, they might as well let their children really "own" the lucky money and give them the right to control it. If parents are not at ease, they can explain to their children that they need to buy under the supervision of their parents when they spend a lot of money to avoid losses.

The child is innocent and lovely, and the childhood experience is unforgettable. There is a saying that "childhood can cure a lifetime". Children grow up, not because of how much money their parents give them, but because of how their parents give them lucky money. Therefore, parents can give the lucky money a sense of formality and ceremony, and let their children tell how they get the lucky money every New Year, for example, playing games, eating jiaozi and eating coins. Isn't this more meaningful than simply giving money to children?
