How do I teach my kid to love and respect this forum?

[Livingleged]

You may be older  than me in the forum but I feel I should  just say a few things. Because  the post actually  caught my attention  though  your request  was older members should  advise  you which  I'm  literally  not. I feel you should let her know what the forum  is about how discussions  are being  done. You  also find out if she's  interested  in the kind of discussion  that is going  on here if she doesn't  then you should  not make it a compulsion.

Learning  is important  actually  but if you let her know about  the wey she  can earn from the forum that will be a motivation when she feels like  it's getting  boring. Let be honest if they are no earnings here it would have been  less active.

Now I have a kid, she is already 18 years old and mature enough to start learning things on her own. I want to introduce her to this forum, not just for earning, but mainly for learning. I want her to understand how discussions work here, how to respect other members, how not to spam, and how to actually contribute something useful.

I am thinking the same as well, but remember this forum must be considered a crypto learning academy. If someone could earn from this forum, that's their efficiency; everyone won't earn from the forum. But definitely anyone could learn from here, and it may help to handle their cryptocurrency later. It's very important to learn about crypto before holding or trading; otherwise, you might lose the funds somehow.

I have daughters as well; when they become mature, I will introduce them to the forum as well. And of course I will say to them it's a crypto academy from where you could learn and apply on your crypto journey. And of course I will introduce them to Bitcoin before introducing them to the forum. If they are interested in Bitcoin, then I will move on to introduce them to the forum.

That depends on her interest. Because if she wants to learn, she'll not find this forum amusing even if it's pack with information that she needs.

What I think she'll say that it's boring and not her type to learn new things. She might just look into youtube videos and social media groups where she can interact with.

Although no doubt the forum is the best for her to learn if she really wants to.

How would you introduce btt to your son or daughter?

It is not hard to introduce the forum to someone, as long as they show interest after you tell them what the forum is about and what people do there. If it is the kind of person who would like the forum, he or she will easily develop interest, and that is all.It is very possible that the way someone introduces the forum to another person will shape the mindset they build about it. Bitcoin is a forum for learning about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general; that is all. There is no need for further explanation when we are trying to introduce the forum to anyone. I also believe that once someone gets to the forum, other members can guide them if they are about to make the wrong decisions.

Most of the newbies we see who are always eager to rank up quickly after joining the forum are influenced by the people who introduced them to it. If someone is told that the forum is mainly a place to earn money, he or she may become eager to start earning immediately.That is why many people who come to the Bitcoin forum through bounty campaigns find it difficult to learn more about the forum and its purpose. A person's first impression usually determines how their journey is likely to end.

The most important thing you should teach her is reading and comprehension. I believe a lot of those who spam may not even know they're doing that but for the fact that they lack semantics interpretation and awareness, they will surely miss relevant discussions that go on with their out of point posts.

My problem is, I am not very good at teaching. I know the value of this forum because I experienced it myself, but explaining it properly to my kid is another thing.

You can point her to relevant reading materials and videos online, if you aren't good at explaining stuff to her yourself.

So I want to ask some advice from older members here. How would you introduce btt to your son or daughter?

There's not much to worry about doing that. I will wait till I feel coming here and learning about the crypto industry won't distract them from their formal education. Already, one of my kids has shown interest in learning about Bitcoin and this industry. I'm the one holding him back, and I've my reason for that.

If you are very regular on the forum, people all around you would always see you on the platform and would always ask you, "Which platform is this?" because the forum has a distinctive look.

I feel like if you are very regular on the forum and say perhaps you assess the forum through your laptop, your children will likely get to see it and ask you what it is, so it becomes easier for you to explain what the platform is and what it is for and about for them to have an interest in it. Children these days are smart.

[Supreme Donvic]

You did not mention that you have introduced your daughter into Bitcoin, and if you have not done that that is the first thing you need to do, introduce her to Bitcoin and if she is interested in Bitcoin then you can further introduce her to this forum. But if you have already introduce her to Bitcoin and she's interested in Bitcoin and she is also interested in knowing more about Bitcoin then introduce her to the forum tell her she is going to know more about Bitcoin and the benefit in the forum, when you introduce her to the forum make sure you tell her the rules and regulation of the forum and the importance of keeping a good reputation in the forum.

[uchegod-21]

The question is, is your child interested in being here? Parents should learn to allow their grown-up children to make decisions for themselves. If your child is interested in Bitcoin and is mature enough, adapting to this forum will not be a problem at all.

Even then, I find it hard to believe this topic is coming from a Hero Member. A Hero Member doesn't need the help of other forum members to teach his own child how to coordinate herself on this forum. In fact, I am finding it hard to believe this entire picture you are painting.

[AYOBA]

I have been here in Bitcointalk for many years already, so I am not really a newbie anymore. I may not be the most technical person here, but this forum taught me a lot over the years. Back in the day, I learned many things here that helped me build confidence in crypto and investing. I also made some investments because of the knowledge I picked up from reading discussions here. So in some way, I am really thankful to this forum.

In as far as you has been in this forum for a very long time you know what’s the forum is all about because it has help you even in your difficult times, that’s why they said that every successful person starts with the decision to try if to say you didn’t build your confidence and learn how the crypto functions, by now you couldn’t know what cryptocurrencies is all about.

On your subject you ask that how do you teach your kid to respect this forum, I don’t think it will be difficult on how you can put your kids through and love this forum; since you as father have know everything about how this forum works and how it can help your kids in future is good to put through.

[Jegileman]

You don’t need to necessarily be a good teacher before you can put your daughter through in this forum. If you claim she’s 18 years of age already, I think that’s fine and she can already know how to communicate in forums like this. Let her know the do’s and don’ts here, by doing so is already a big step for her to getting to know everything about this forum. I am sure there is nothing she could ask you about this forum you’ll find hard to answer unless it is above the scope of what you’ve learned here but for the rules of the forum, you already know and can guide her. So I don’t think she’ll find it hard to find her way through in this forum, just get her started if she already showed the interest and ready to learn.

People will always be the same because they will have to unleash what they intended to do from their mind, if your daughter is willing to learn about this forum and also remain here, there are things you also have to discover by herr own self, because of the passion she has for the forum, which film make a to be restricted to doing some particular things that could end our stay here, do your best and every other thing is left on her to determine whether she will stay or go by how she live the forum.

There are things she will discover herself; learning is a gradual process, and she can't grab everything at once, and nobody will hold her hand to teach her how to walk. The form is a place where if you read the rule, every other thing can be walked through over time as long as you are willing to learn, and I see this place as somewhere as long as you can read and comprehend things, you can engage in it without having issues; just have thick skin, as the president has recommended.

I do not want to seem rude.  But is she uneducated?  Other wise, how can she not know how a discussion works or how to respect others?  Tell her about the rules if you want.  Plagiarism, spam et cetera.  But this is not the Oscars where she needs a particular type of dress and attitude.  She can be rude or not, new or advanced, if she presents interest show her the Forum.  Other wise, let her be.  Or she will become a spammer under pressure, the particular thing you say you want to avoid.

Although I'm not a elder person of this forum, I could not help sharing some personal thoughts after reading your post. First of all, the topic is very interesting because you are going to introduce and teach bitcointalk to another generation after yours. Every part of your post was good, if your child is interested, just explaining the rules, regulations and guidelines properly will be enough.

Since he/she is 18 years old, he will be able to learn these things quite well. The matter is truly interesting because your child is coming to the same place where you learned and contributed, through your guidance.

I want her to understand how discussions work here, how to respect other members, how not to spam, and how to actually contribute something useful.

I guess the first question here is does she really want to be in this forum? does she really want to engage with the cryptocurrency and learn related into crypto stuffs?

It's too hard to teach other people to the things we want if they aren't interested at all. I am not against you want her here in the community but it's hard to engage the things you aren't curious and wanted to be in.

With that teen age they focus most likely exploring and with their friends.

[Die_empty]

You are trying to set her on the right part by introducing her to a forum where she can get exposed to things happening in crypto and not depend on the controlled news flying on the media. When it comes to how and what pattern to use and teach her. That should be based on her level of knowledge and pattern. You know she could easily understand things, everyone don't have the same pattern of learning.

First first makes her study the forum rules since she's coming in for learning, it won't be hard for her at all as long as she remains focused and learns how to accept corrections and don't feel disrespected or intimidated when someone tries to correct her even in a harsh way.

I think she should first have an interest in Bitcoin. If she doesn't have interest, I doubt that she would be patient enough to learn and grow in the forum. Most people who were able to stay in the forum for a long time appreciated the benefits that Bitcoin offers. Some wanted privacy, others a hedge against inflation, while some wanted freedom, and so on.

Before introducing her to the forum, the OP should introduce the concept of Bitcoin to her. Her reaction and interest will determine if the forum will be helpful to her. Since she is eighteen, the forum would be helpful if she really wants to be a bitcoiner.

How to know if someone would like to be in a forum like this? You just need to have a conversation about Bitcoin with them. Their reactions to Bitcoin discussions and their interest in Bitcoin will let you know if they would like to be in the forum. When bringing people to a place like this, you don't need to force them;

 it is better for them to decide for themselves. From their decision, it will be easy for them to learn because that willingness will be there. However, if you only succeed in convincing them, learning will be slow, and they will completely depend on you for direction. Have a discussion about Bitcoin; their interests will indicate whether they are serious about being in the forum or not.

[tabas]

Kids or teens these days are very resourceful. They have a firsthand idea of what they want to know and that's why if they're so interested in the forum, you don't have to ask them to come and visit because before you even tell and ask them, it's possible that they've registered already. But they're also one of the generations these days that have lesser patience. The letters that are popping on their pages and sections they visit might be too much for them to read. So I'd say that just give them the links and resources and it will be up to them, you don't have to force them and feed them the info you want them to have.

[Daniel91]

Interesting question.
I remember a friend of mine asking me a few years ago if I could explain bitcoin to his 15-year-old daughter, how it all works, what it is, what the possibilities are, etc.
Unfortunately, it didn't end well.
I suggested she join this forum, read the posts, ask questions, and slowly learn about bitcoin, without too much rush or pressure.
However, some of the older members didn't like her posts, some started to criticize her and attack her for her writing style, topics, and content (obviously without realizing that she was a child), etc., and she eventually gave up on the forum.
I think she wasn't really that interested in bitcoin and that she was there more because of her father, who thought it was something good for her, than because of her own desire and interest.
I think young people don't really understand what an online forum is and how everything works here, and they take the attacks and objections on the forum too personally.
They should be allowed to find what interests them and slowly learn through personal experience.

Thank you for all your inputs guys, it is really helpful, you just did the job I was supposed to do.

With that, it would be easier for her to learn now, I will just point this thread to her by giving her the link, and I hope she will digest all the information here correctly.

Keep them coming guys.

To me it's actually a good decision or an ideas that will make the children feel better position when it comes to financial goals, I also have this same intention of bringing my children in to the crypto space specifically the most valuable crypto which is bitcoin. In my own perspective I think the best time to introduce them into this citadel of learning, is when they get to a certain age like from 18 years to 20, which I believe he or she must have gone far in school depending. So the easy way to start or draw their attention into this forum or cryptocurency is by teaching them the basics knowledges on crypcurency like normal lessons they usually attend at home, by also introducing some of the YouTube video that talks or teach many investors on cryptocurency guidelines, because the children brain are son sensitive to pick something easterly at that range of their ages. What they just need is proper learning consistently and time dedication, before you know within a short period of time they will be able to learn something. Wares in forum they just need to follow the rules and regulations and frequently going to more researches that will benign them and keep them moving gradually.
