American culture, particularly among the affluent, has tended to make money a Very private topic, even within families, and among the very affluent, a traditional element of control. The Women & Co. has highlighted a shift in this trend. Personally, I think that the model you describe in your family is a desirable one. Maria, thanks for your

At least among traditional Chinese, the wife/mother is primarily responsible for spending the money (the husband/father earns it, the wife/mother spends it in the best interest of the family). We have seen data on the rising number of single parent households headed by women, and number of women MBAs (who are supposed to think in terms of money), and women in enterprises responsible for budgets... so why is it new that women would talk about money especially to their daughters? As for over-spending by our government, I believe (personal opinion) that it is trying to do too much with not enough money. That's not news, either.
