[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like some is based in fact "Telling kids that we live in a small house because we do not want to spend money. Telling that we drive old cars because we dont want to spend money. We live in a house that is around $1 million. We do live in a smaller home by choice and drive old cars by choice. This goes on at least twice a week." [b]Tell your kids you prioritize money & time over a more expensive house or cars. [/b] Tell kids that sometimes people say things that are impolite, rude, weird. . . and if not harming the listener mentally to accept people say things they might not like and move pass it.[/quote] I told them exactly that (the bolded part). That is how I handled it so far. What I am worried about is how much of an impact it might have on kids in terms of inviting their friends to our house if they feel ashamed of it.[/quote]
