One way we try to make it easier is by making it clear that the children can make personal choices about things like donation, diet, and eventually career. E.g. we have the full range from vegan to meat-eaters in our house, and when Lily decided she wanted to be vegetarian for a while we said “It’s your choice.”
I can imagine having conflict later about her wanting to use the money we donate differently (for spending on “extras” or for donating to something we don’t think is effective). But I don’t expect it to be worse than the conflict parents and children typically have about money.
