[quote=Anonymous]My older DD was significantly poorer than her closest friends growing up. We made sure that her friends did fun and unique things with us when we had playdates and even took two friends on us on the only two real vacations we took up through middle school. By unique, I mean that we did things that her friends' parents hadn't exposed to them like swimming in a real watering hole or going to $1 skate night. I never felt bad that I couldn't take them on week-long beach vacations or to Build-a-Bear. Along the way, a few of the families experienced economic strains due to divorce or illness and they stopped asking for playdates, I assume because they didn't know that your child's friends don't care if you have a 300 sq foot dedicated playroom, they just want to spend time with your kid.[/quote]
