When My Daughter Gave Away $1300: A Lesson in Generosity

Last week, my daughter made a decision that left me both stunned and proud—she gave away $1300 to help a friend in need. At first, I worried about the consequences and whether she truly understood the value of money. But as we talked, I realized her heart was in the right place. She saw someone struggling and chose compassion over keeping her savings. It reminded me that sometimes, the greatest lessons we can teach our children aren’t about holding on, but about letting go and trusting in kindness. Have you ever faced a moment when your child’s generosity surprised you?
