Today my 12-year-old son asked me how much daddy makes. How do I have this convo with him? How much do I disclose?

He's old enough to know that. But if u feel tht it's going to cause him to gloat about it in front of friends where others like peons, security guards, bus driver etc may overhear and cause scheming harm to him, then divulge only half the salary amount or after telling him, explain to him tht it's discretion on his part to avoid bringing this topic up to his friends and revealing home secrets. Tht way he too will learn the importance of having shrewd conversation
