Children who grow up with a home business in the other room will experience with their parents the realities and stresses of adult responsibilities. They'll come to understand that work is not all fun and games, and learn from you how to persevere when multiple responsibilities lead to frustration and anxiety. A home business family knows well that the harder you work now, the more fun you'll have later. Such a team effort strengthens family bonds. Every couple who lives with a home business works as a team to pull it off.
Parental harmony goes a long way in the emotional well-being of children.
Children of home-based entrepreneurs become economically astute at an early age. Business ownership offers ample opportunities for volunteer work and community involvement, teaching children the gift of giving. As the workforce shifts to accommodate new technology and employment opportunities, contract working is emerging as a viable and profitable work option. A home business develops highly marketable career skills that will help parents cross over the bridges between big business, small business and self-employment as family and economic needs change. This helps secure the family's finances.
