Step-by-Step Execution
Tips for Parents:
During conversation, ask questions. Examples:
Instead of instructing a child to ask for bank account details, Ask “how do you pass papa’s money here to the seller?”
Instead of instructing a child to provide address, Ask "how do the seller know where to send the item?"
Step back during the transaction process (with the exception of banking transaction)
Repeat purchases using reflection notes. Practice makes perfect!
