Yes I have had many conversations about being responsible with money. When they get cash as gifts, I encourage them to put at least half in their savings account.
a bit of convo over the years

Oh, yes, I have had the money talk! I feel that this is a very important part of life, too often sadly ignored until there are problems.

Yeah, but a few reminders now and then do not hurt.

My kids struggle with math concepts alone so I know I'm bad! I've fallen off the wagon with this, but I try to talk to them about money in the moment (when we are on a check out line for example.)

My child's responsible with money, just like his mom.
