I think that play is a very big lesson to everyone in the contemporary world. So if your children are not interested to learn bitcoin please don't force them. Everyone has their own destiny.

we really can't force anyone to know or learn Bitcoin. even if it is our parents or children. providing basic Bitcoin knowledge like they can save their little money on Bitcoin and they can take it in the future is enough for kids. no need to explain investing or anything related to Bitcoin that is too complicated. it can reduce the interest of children to learn or know more.
introduce it and let the children learn it by themselves in the future. if they are interested, they will come and ask us someday.

Do people regard bitcoin investment as a whole way of life on which they may rely to shape their lives? If this is the case, the goal of bitcoin has been compromised. Bitcoin is an alternative method of holding money, which is why it was created. You can tell your children about bitcoin and how autonomous and decentralized it is, as well as how much privacy and money ownership it provides.

When you compare this to some kind of destiny stuff, you're completely reliant on it as your entire source of income for the rest of your life.
It's fine to tell your children about bitcoin but not to force them to use it; if it's compared to fate, it'll appear as if you're using that as a persuasive advantage to entice them to use it, which is wrong.

Teaching children on bitcoin is like the latest threads in the forum. It is good to tell our children about bitcoin in their tender ages but destiny is not something you force someone to achieve. Just like the general saying that "You can take a horse to the river but you cannot force it to drink the water". That's, it is good to tell your children about bitcoin but you cannot force him or her to learn bitcoin if it is not in the mind of the child and if that is not the child's calling in life.

Just like another instant again, it is a Ghanaian Play called "Sons and Daughters by Joe De Graft". The father wanted his daughter to study law while the some for medicine but the boy wanted to study Fine and Applied Arts while the girl wanted to study Theatre Arts but the father refused. There was a day the boy's friend drew Ghanaian President and the picture was bought with a very big amounts of money which was about millions and it was broadcasted on National TV and Radio Stations and the father heard about the news and he called his children and advised them to study what they like.

you are right we should not force our children to learn about bitcoin then dive into crypto currency world. But at least, if we do not try to give them some learning step by step we do not know wether they interest or not. if we start to try to engage them to be close with bitcoin, it gives the chance to spark their interest in bitcoin.

Everything around us is changing, including the global financial system, and we are progressively entering a fully digital future. It wouldn't be a bad idea to explain to the kids where the global economy is going and how individuals are learning to put their assets in bitcoin in order to protect them in the future. However, there should be a minimum age before we introduce children to bitcoin and the global financial system. Should I say, starting at age 15?

By providing them with a foundational understanding of what the new digital era we are in is like and what it will be like in the future, educating children about bitcoin at that young age will aid in the development of their future financial wealth decisions.

You don't need to force your children into Bitcoin, but at least give it a try. At same time, your children don't need to be interested in Bitcoin to make you able to invest in BTC for them, as a father, mother or tutor. If you are a Bitcoin enthusiast create a wallet for your children and manage it for them until they reach the adulthood, so they can decide what to do with the money.

Again, it will be a personal decision to be made by them once the time comes. The important here is that you will be giving them a decent choice many children unfortunatelly don't have... What your children will do with the opportunity you give them it's up to themselves. You did your part as parent and that is what matters.

of course. although we love Bitcoin so much and we want to have continuity people in our family to learn and understand about Bitcoin. Don't force our childten tonlearn if they don' wan lt or they are not ready yet for learning Bitcoin. Bitcoin is not oy an asset, but this is also something very risky

tesching kids to lesrn about Bitcoin is exactly very hard, this is a deep subject to learn Moreover if they are still not ready yet, this may be more dangeruous for them, because emotionally they may not be ready with all risks and also their emotion. They may think that Bitcoin can make them rich soon in their mind. While the reality is different. in this caelse, it is better not to force them to learn about crypto whatever the matter. Except that if they are ready and they have been adult enough to be aware learning Bitcoin by themselves.

I don't see any need to teach kids about Bitcoin, because a lot of time will pass until this knowledge will become useful to them, and by that time they will likely forget it. Also, what are even the practical aspects of promoting Bitcoin to young people? To convince them to put the first money that they earned in their life into a Bitcoin investment? Starting your investment with a high risk option is not a good idea. Promoting Bitcoin as a medium of exhange? If it is popular, they will figure it out on their own, if it's not, they you are just trying to create new Bitcoin users through indoctrination.

You have your point too. It’s really useless to teach them while they’re young and easily forget those since they are not totally exposed in the real market. But maybe when they’re already in their right age, teaching them might be reasonable. If they like and appreciate bitcoin and want to learn more, then good for them but if they don’t have the interest in bitcoin, then we can’t do nothing about it. It’s just that our children have different passion too so we just have to support them all the way.

It's not like you can force your kids to like something that they don't in the first place. But it pays to teach them at an early age of what bitcoin is and how it works. Young kids' brains are pliable and are sponges for information and knowledges, which is why it's best to teach children valuable life skills and know-abouts as early as you can. And it's not as if it's detrimental to teach kids about bitcoin in the first place lmao. What's the worst they can do? Buy high sell low?

Nothing about teaching bitcoin to children is forced at all. You either teach your kids about it, they absorb and learn it, or you don't teach them anything and have them figure out bitcoin later down the line.

Though they are entitled to know and learn about crypto or about Bitcoin but yes, it should be done at the perfect time and in the right age. Because it was hard to teach kids who still have young minds and are incapable enough. In fact, it was difficult to convince mature people who already have the capability to carry such responsibility, how much more for the kids who's in their mind is all about playing and in school focused on their studies. It is better to let them choose what they wanted rather than forcing them as it was not the right thing to do as parents.

If I have bitcoin piled up for my child's future, it's a must that I'll teach him about bitcoin and same is expected of any parent that stores bitcoin for their kids. I don't see any essence of teaching a child about bitcoin if he won't grow up to use bitcoin, nobody knows his area of interest. But, when a child grows up and hear that he owns some amount of money stored in bitcoin he will definitely get interested in bitcoin. That's why its important to train such a child in the ways of bitcoin, so that when he grows he'll know when to hodl and sell the bitcoin.

You have introduce the world of crypto to them in a slow manner.
So they won't be overwhelm of what they will hear or read about this market.
They are still young to understand some concepts, and so you need to be careful in giving them those information.
If you are into crypto, would be good to start giving them the basics, that is, if they show interest on this market.
Otherwise, don't force them to learn about crypto and blockchain. They have their own time in learning these things.

I have seen a topic similar to this most times which are interesting but I think this is contrary to what I expect to see here on this board. Maybe you have to tell us what you mean "Don't Force Your Children to Learn Bitcoin." This is off for me because I see no reason why you have to bring this question onboard. Do you have a child that you have been worried about trying to teach them to learn about Bitcoin and they are adamant? If yes, it is important to know why the child decided not to learn maybe the way it is brought to him is never interesting. No, you have to look for the best way to explain what Bitcoin entails.

I agree that we shouldn't let our child get involved in Bitcoin for the reason that they are too young to understand the Bitcoin economics. Besides kids should be more focuson their study, learning the basics of education so that they have a strong foundation to learn advance knowledge.

Knowing Bitcoin will not make these kids any smarter, besides they don't have the capability to produce money to invest in Bitcoin. They also shouldn't thrift the money that is given to them for their snacks and food just to have savings and buy Bitcoin from it. It will have a negative impact in their health because it may cause hunger and lack of nutrition.

As far as I know, Bitcoin is not for kids. It is right to teach kids about financial intelligence but it shouldn't be the reason to push them to learn about Bitcoin because this kids lives will go on even without knowing what BTC is.

Childhood is for enjoyment so let your children be the children they are instead of forcing them to adopt something that is higher than their capacity for now, I don't see any advantage in teaching kids about Bitcoin, unless for those that pick natural interest in it along the line, and the education should be limited to teaching the about safety and security of Bitcoin and the internet in general.

^Definitely right and I completely agree with you.
Let them enjoy their childhood and let financial matters lesson will come when they are ready.
Play can indeed be a powerful lesson for everyone, regardless of age. While it is important to expose children to various educational opportunities, it is equally vital to respect their individual interests and passions. BTC has a wild thought and continues evolving concepts, that may not appeal to every child, and that is perfectly okay. Each person has their own unique path and destiny in life, and it is quite not good to nurture their natural curiosity and talents. By allowing children to explore their own passions, we empower them to pursue fulfilling future interests and strengths and let them enjoy themselves, and don't force to teach them any financial matters.

It is left for the individual to know if it will be fine if s/he to teach their children bitcoin and the age of the child matters a lot too. Teaching them on how to save money will be better more of,you can introduce bitcoin to them but not on how to buy and store, when the right time come for them to know then you can teach only the one that is willing to learn.

Just the way you can't force bitcoin on adult to accept or to listen to likewise the children too because if you are forcing them,it will be a waste of time. Though,it is cool to teach them earlier but do you think that this is the right thing they feel they want at that moment.

I think that is the wrong word here, "force", we are already in the century wherein children and parents relationship are not that 'tight' anymore. What I mean is that the children know their freedom already. Although I believed that there are still society who is close knit today, but we all know that are children like to think for themselves already, which career path they want etc. Bitcoin is not that bad to be teach to them, but we all know that we can't just give them all that information and then suddenly we will find them studying it. Let them pursuit their own, whether they will involved themselves on bitcoin or crypto or not, it's not up to us.

Don't force anybody to learn BTC, not only children but you can explain to them some of the things they will experience from their lives and their business when they activate this BTC in their life. Teaching your children about BTC is not bad because, anything can happen than will make your children to have access to your BTC in future when you are no longer alive but never you force them to learn BTC, so that they will not blame you for their failure in future. If your children grow up and see some of the good things you have achieved through BTC, I believe they will surely look for way to acquire the knowledge of BTC so that they will be great too in the future.

When talking about destiny I think this is going too far because when we talk about it destiny is likened to being a standard thing but when talking about learning this includes what can be changed regardless of anything.
Teaching children about bitcoin will actually be quite good, but it will come back to the condition where are they really interested or not in something like this because I really think this should start with interest first.
Basically, all children have a high curiosity about something new, so there's nothing wrong with doing something like that, but on the other hand, we also have to be aware that not all children have the same interest, even with their parents.
It would be great if they are really interested in bitcoin, whatever when they choose another path, nothing has changed because at least we have told them about bitcoin beforehand and we have to support the child's decision because they have their own way of life, do they ultimately like bitcoin the same as people parents or not we still have to have conditions where we have to provide the best facilities for children in their final decision.
