Well, I will not force my future children to learn Bitcoin, but if I will need to use my force to teach them about investing, I will do it because I don't want my future children grow up not knowing about investing at all.

Children from birth up to 7 years old are the years where a child is very vulnerable. I mean all of the things that he sees, and learns at that age will be the one that will be on his my mind as he grows up. If he's surroundings is a surrounding full of bad people, there's a chance that he will be a bad people when he grows up. I'm thinking of teaching my child at least how to save money at that age. He's too young to learn investing at that time, but saving is my first step towards it.

I agree that we don't need to use force to teach them Bitcoin because it's not mandatory for a person especially to a child to learn it. I mean we can still live without it right? I don't know if it's a good thing, but I think at age 10 above, we can teach our children about investing already, but only the basics of it. Just an eye-opener I guess, and if he's a teenager already, we can teach them different types of investments including Bitcoin, the risks of it, the pros and cons etc. etc. One thing's for sure for me though, I will not force my children to learn Bitcoin, but if I need to use force to teach them about investing, I will do it.

I wouldn't think that complicated about bitcoin when I wanted to teach kids. Bitcoin is a currency that they should be familiar with in their digital life, I mean several online services currently accept bitcoin as a means of payment and this will continue to evolve over time. You need to tell them as simply as possible about bitcoin and one of them is to tell them that bitcoin is a good currency as an alternative to fiat.

Currently, the world is completely digital that even 3-5 year olds know enough about how to operate their smartphones, so giving them some insight into bitcoin may be feasible but only after they seem ready to know about this currency. The mindset must be adapted to the times, ready or not they will be required to know its development.

I am not against it or with it totally. Bitcoin learning is complex and not meant for everyone. And yes, people should have a free will to choose whatever they want to do in their life. But when you are unaware of it, it does not become a choice. So you will never think of doing it! Not to force your children to learn about bitcoin, but to present them with the knowledge. That way they can learn about it. Just because you know about something does not mean it becomes an absolute choice to do it. If you are curious about it, you will try to learn more about it. Then, if you think it's a good enough choice for you, you will make it an option.
I am against those people who are forcing their child to do it. Make it an option so that they can choose it on their own. Not everything is for everyone. So I want to say that, it's not wrong to teach your kids about Bitcoin. But it's wrong to force them to do it and leaving them with no option other than this. And in life, we learn from trial and errors. If something doesn't work out as we imagine it, we move to something else. So it's important to have multiple choices.

You shouldn't force your children to learn about bitcoin but you can force them to learn about all the nonsense stuff school teaches. Why ?
The school doesn't teach us about economy, financial planning, how to grow wealth etc... which are all major things we need to learn right from our childhood.
I can agree with your point upto some extent that nothing should be force upon children but yet I would say we should atleast make them learn the basics about finance, economy, crypto etc... so that they are aware of it.
If they become more interested then they can start digging up more.

Making it look like children don't have a choice of their own because you're the parent, is a no no for me. At least you make it look plain for children to either choose to or not to engage in Bitcoin trading or whatever. One thing have come to understand about children is that, if they don't put their 100% on things that's being forced on them the result you get would be displeasing, they might do it because you're their but ones you're not with them they'll choose what suit them. No matter how small a child is, he/she has the right to choose which path to follow in life.

I always support whatever my children dream for their future, I never force them to follow my dream. I'm very aware that we have no right to determine their future, it is their own right. But I have the responsibility to let them know about Bitcoin, who knows if they are interested in Bitcoin. Because Bitcoin is something good, I think it deserves to know by everyone, including our children. Whether they are interested or not, it is up to them. At the end of the day, our children will determine their future themselves. We, as parents, only give guidance to the things that we think are good and they are likely to be interested in. So, telling/sharing them about Bitcoin doesn't always mean forcing them. It depends on the way we do it!!

As a parent you are required to give them guidance. It is okay to share some ideas which may catch their interest and it is for them to decide whether to pursue something particular or go the other way around. Misconception starts from the age of a child. Some would say starting it on early age would be aan advantage but actually it is not. Early childhood age limits a kid, basically. We cannot expect an 8 yr/old to be excited with esrning money if they are hooked into playing (well, some kid does). Let things undergo thru natural progress. Also, if it is jist investment, it would be better to give them less risky option than to push this industry just because of that thing called potential (every asset has potential).

Even without Bitcoin parents can still teach their children about financial education.  I agree that having to learn financial management will give an advantage to the kids and might make them thrifty and saves money because they have learned the essence of savings.


Investment in Bitcoin doesn't all the time bring money.  If everyone is profiting in Bitcoin then Bitcoin is breaking the law of equilibrium.  Remember in this kind of law, when someone is gaining, the other one is losing;.  Thus getting profit in Bitcoin trading means someone is losing in the trade.

Even if you are investing in bitcoin yourself and you have no guarantee about your future, what are you going to do to secure the future for your children when they invest in bitcoin? I want to know have you become rich by investing in bitcoin?

There is nothing wrong with teaching kids bitcoin, but it should be an option rather than the only option, there are many ways to get rich. Don't forget billionaires today they are rich in many ways, and they don't need bitcoins.
