[quote=Anonymous]I don't see a problem with any of this. I definitely had richer friends growing up, and it was nice to go to their ski houses! I would just be sensitive, as the girls age, to the issues that arise around clothing, more expensive toys at the home (e.g., does she have her own ipad so they can text each other, or a gaming system at her home), and also when they get older and start going out places on their own and so parents don't cover the cost. That was the worst for me -- when friends had endless money to drop at movies, dinner, amusement parks, and I had like $2 a week to spend on stuff like that. Hopefully you will teach your daughter to be sensitive to the fact that everyone has different means, and its worthwhile keeping a friendship even when the friend can't afford to do the things you can.
