[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bought tickets at the Kennedy Center for my husband and I to go but I couldn't justify paying hundreds per ticket for my 11 and 9 yo kids. After the fact, they are telling me that THIS friend's parents took them and THAT friend's parents took them. [b]My kids would love to go but spending that type of money on them at this age for Hamilton didn't make sense to me. [/b]Should I feel guilty about this? [/quote]

You choose how to spend your money.  And deciding not to spend that much money is perfectly valid.  However, deciding to spend it on yourself and your husband and not your kids seems kind of . . . I don't know what, but not anything good.  If they wouldn't appreciate it, that's one thing.  But it sounds like they would, and you just decided to  go yourself and arbitrarily not take them based on nothing more than their age?  That's not very nice.

We took our 10 yo, and she was over the moon.  She was easily the biggest fan in the entire family.  In fact, if we'd only been able to get 2 tickets one of the parents would have stayed home and sent her.  [/quote]
