[quote=Anonymous]We live in a modest house in a very nice neighborhood, and have become quite tight with our neighbors. We love hanging out with the parents, and the kids all get along beautifully. In Covid, we bubbled up with them and hung out frequently- Lots of backyard hangouts and happy hours on people's decks. I would estimate our HHI to be approximately 1/4 of what everyone else's is- just based on their homes, careers and spending habits. Since things have started opening up, we have noticed that the other families appear to be signing up for activities, lessons and camps left and right. They are also frequently booking weekend getaways and planning dinners out. We are always invited and included but often have to decline due to cost. I am worried that at a certain point, they will just stop including us. Is there a tactful way to site cost as the reason why? I don't want them to think we aren't interested in being included!
