Family Values are ideas as to how you want to live your life. These values help you make good choices and guide you on how to behave in certain situations. Values are personal beliefs about what is important and what is not; what is good and what is bad and what is right and what is wrong. Values give us direction on how to live. "Family Values with Ms. Money", Principles to Live by is a children's picture book. The setting for the book is a classroom where Ms. Money and Uncle Ricky provide the students examples of Family Values. Uncle Ricky addresses the class, including two of his nephews, about the values his family believes to be important. His13 Family Values are divided into 3 categories: Moral Values, Personal Values and Financial Literacy. This book explores with the students certain of Uncle Ricky's Family Values including: always telling the truth, being responsible for your actions and not making excuses, caring about people around you, treating everyone equally and becoming financially literate. At the end of the book is Uncle Ricky's list of Family Values. Your family can use Uncle Ricky's list of Family Values to start. However, every family should develop a list of what is important to them. Establishing values for your family to live by should start at a young age. Initially, they should be developed by parents and as the family ages there should be input from everyone. We live in a world where power and material success are always on display. Many of our politicians, celebrities and sport stars flaunt what they believe to be success. Therefore, it is important that your Family Values be reinforced continuously. This occurs by frequently discussing the established values, conspicuously displaying the values, using the values as a focal point for solving problems which may arise, and by parents living the values for all to see. "Family Values with Ms. Money" will provide your children illustrations of why Family Values are so important. This children's picture book will provide parents a fun way to discuss concepts your children will use their entire life. The value Become Financially Literate is explored in more detail in a previously published children's picture book, "Let's Meet Ms. Money", One Step Towards Financial Literacy.
