Teaching the children to be transparent with their parents

Q: Please can you recommend what age is appropriate to teach a child their body parts? 

My 3.5 year old only knows it as her private area. And in the shower I only point to all the areas no one is allowed to touch. As she is getting older and ready for school soon my fear of sexual abuse increases daily and I want to know what I should be teaching her and when? 

I only recall my mother ever talking to me about my own body when I became baligh, and I learnt about the male body when I was getting married. Now though, it's different. There's so much more fitnah. And parents that allow their kids to use screens, these kids are exposed to so much more. 

I just want my daughter to get the correct knowledge from myself and her father here at home first before we send her out.

Adding extra money for one child so that the investment for both children will be equal

Q: I've got two sons. They're toddlers. 

My elder son received alot of money as a gift when he was a baby while the second one didn't receive as much. I was thinking of converting their cash to gold. Will it be okay for me to give money to add only to the younger one so I can get the same amount of gold for each child or will it be unfair to the older child? 

We will not inform them of this when they are older.

Father assisting one son financially

Q: Should a parent be equal to all of their children in terms of finance and gifts? 

For example: There are 4 brothers. No. 1 is a doctor, set up by the father but paid back. No. 2 is in the business with his father as a partner, also paid back. No. 3 is still studying. No. 4 is an aalim and recently started working in the business. The father wants to set no. 4 up eventually. 

Question: Will it be fair if the father sets up no. 4 in the business, without paying back. Basically giving him a business and not giving any other brother the same.
