Haven't thought about it yet.

There are probably better ways to teach your kids the value of money without telling them how much you make. It probably makes more sense for the household that grosses 75k than the one that grosses 250k. Hard to convince a 12 year old you can't afford a PS4 when you are making a lot.

Nah

2 years old is really early to be disappointed in your father

So I think I'll wait

I never knew how much my parents made or any of my siblings. I knew we were well off but that was it. Discussing pay with someone other than a spouse or significant other is in very poor taste IMO.

My GF's uncle's family always tells us how much everyone is making and how much the new house cost etc. I consider it trashy.
