Despite the recognized influence of the family unit in shaping financial behavior, there remains a gap in the literature concerning the factors determining attitudes toward financial literacy education among younger generations, particularly within the home environment. This paper investigates gender differences in attitudes toward imparting thrift and saving to children. This paper employs pooled cross-sectional regressions and primarily includes data derived from the sixth and seventh waves of the World Values Survey (WVS) that were conducted between 2010 and 2021. The results support the hypothesis derived from combining the unique characteristics of females and males with the microeconomic theory of household saving, which is centered around the intertemporal choice model. Females are more likely than males to view the importance of imparting thrift and saving to children within the home environment. Gender differences have profound implications for both policy formulation and financial literacy educational strategies.
