| As you can see theres alotta valid points on both sides. Its great that she learn how to manage and understand everything. However too much info at once is also bad. A 6 year old may know numbers but they also dont know the value of what a large drop means (as already noted). Remember, as of right now, this will be with them for the rest of their lives. As long as theres a constant transition to self care, having help isn't always a bad thing. We, as parents in all honesty, have the choice to walk away. Our precious kids, don't have that option anymore.
As for your hubby. Cut him some slack. He's not an idiot. He is looking at the big picture in terms of your daughters future care, while you are looking at the present picture. Each kid adjusts on their own.
