Talking to Your Kids About Money: Why Parents Hesitate and How to Start

Bruce speaks with Lucianna Adragna, Vice President of Client Segments at RBC, about new research on how Canadian parents feel about talking to their kids about money. Lucianna shares why so many parents lack confidence, how their own financial stress holds them back, and why waiting for “big life moments” to start the conversation is a missed opportunity. She offers practical ways to weave money lessons into everyday life—at the grocery store, with allowances, and with simple save/spend/give systems—so kids can learn healthy habits long before they move out on their own.
