[quote=Anonymous]I was raised in a very middle class (blue collar) family. My dad worked two jobs to support us, and my mom met all domestic (and psychosocial) needs for our family of 8. Even though my current nuclear family is not wealthy from the perspective of Potomac/Chevy Chase, my daughter has been to Europe multiple times, fancy camps, braces, occasional housekeeper, the whole nine yards. She never saw us struggle financially. I hope she realizes that she will not have this lifestyle until (and unless) she works for decades to achieve it. You hear that kids nowadays expect to start at the top. [/quote]
