They have the idea of responsibility and as a parent you can always support their idea without taking the toll of responsibility on their shoulder. Helping each other in the family is a good sign that your family will make it through the rainy seasons. If your children is good with baking or have a talent that generates income that won’t affect their schooling, it’s a good thing to support to. But always remind them that it’s your task as parents to provide for them but if they want extra allowance or to help with the budget its okay to help. In the end their attitude toward responsibility will be a good character they will carry on until their adulthood.

Start your idea with an idea to help contribute or impart to the community in order to ignite your passion for business. A little push from a sense of responsibility for the community will be a good start to kick a booming business eventually.
