Nope. They can buy one themselves if they want.
Are you planning to buy your kids a love bracelet?

No. It is not how I wish to spend my wealth on my children. But I can also appreciate that others feel differently.
No, my mother has made it clear that she will not under any circumstances. 
Now that I think about it a little more. $7000 USD for a bracelet
.If I had kids, I'd rather give them an all expense paid trip to several countries!
I remember before I was 18, my family traveled at least once a year since I was 4 and brought me to multiple countries and states across the country. I have many fond memories of those trips and I believe my experiences with various cultures and customs really helped shaped me to be the person I am today (aka: building character
).
I would use the money to go toward their education, therapy, IRA. But not luxury items.
Don't think so but I will pass it down once they are older.
My daughter is 18 and looveeees jewelry but doesn't yet have the maturity to care for expensive pieces - she treats everything the same no matter the price point. 
I would venture into fashion jewelry like LV or Gucci first before going into Cartier/VCA territory!

My little one loves to discuss jewelry with me (not just mine but hers too *toys). She doesn't know nor recognise brands but she is well aware that mine are "very fragile" as when occasionally she knocks onto my bracelets, she will apologise to me. I reciprocate by saying sorry to her too when I knock onto hers. She will then check her bracelets and tell me "it's ok nothing broken"
She is 5.

Nope.
I'll definitely spend on education and holidays around the world (post covid atleast)
When they come to a mature age, they'll inherit my pieces.
The rest they can purchase themselves.

My baby is a fur baby. I don’t think he’d appreciate it
My daughters are still very young, but one in particular absolutely LOVES jewelry. She also plays with my 2 regular loves on my arm. I could 100% see myself giving her a Love when she reaches a milestone age (18, 21) or graduates. But I would absolutely wait until she's of adult size, if that makes sense. I've heard people say they get their jewelry with the intent of passing it down to their children, but I'm kind of petite. My daughters might very well have a larger build, like their dad. What if they're not a size 17, like me? You can't resize these like a ring, or get a chain extender.
Buy what you want for yourself, and if you're feeling generous later, maybe get the kiddos their own?

Likely, yes. I bought my daughter a Tiffany DBTY necklace for her 16th, a yellow gold love ring for her high school graduation this year and I think I might possibly get her the love bracelet when she graduates college in 2025. She loves jewelry and wears both pieces daily. We wanted her to have a few heirloom pieces.
Funny I really wanted to buy my step daughter a Love for her high school graduation. Instead of surprising her I asked first to make she she wanted one. To my surprise she didn’t want one and instead asked for diamond hoops. This year for her birthday she asked for (and received) a Rolex. I wouldn’t be surprised if now that’s she’s more sophisticated she’ll change her mind and ask for a Love or JUC.
