HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT YOUR CHILD:

Here are a few ways that you can support your 8 Life Path child to be the best they can be:

• Talk about money!  As parents, we often avoid the hard topic of money as much as the tricky topic of sex.  Your 8 Life Path will benefit greatly when you allow and encourage them to forge a relationship with money, learn how to make it and how to use it, how to give generously to others, and how to believe in their own business acumen.  Money is a tool and an exchange of energy – the more comfortable your 8 Life Path child is with money, the more successful they’ll be.

• Place them in reasonable positions of power. Your child is learning how to be an effective leader in the business world.  If you place them in some fun, reasonable positions of power within your family structure, they’ll benefit greatly.  Use it as a game, yet make sure there are age-appropriate rewards and penalties.
