How to help a young person learn financial life skills

Hi,

I am new to this community, so I'm not quite sure how this all works!

My soon to be 16 year old daughter has ASD, and her DLA will soon be paid to her directly.

I was wondering how other parents support their child?  Do you actively look at their accounts, or manage on their behalf, or leave them to it?  I have had conversations with her around online scams where a "friend" may ask for money, but I still worry she will be taken advantage of.  I would like her to learn financial life skills, so I am looking for advice on the best way to help her with that.

Can I have your thoughts/experiences please?

Thank you in advance Slight smile
