[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not generalizing, I am just trying to explain why it is important to some moms (like OP) to stick to their rules in their house. I don't  like stuff at all and I don't where anything that showing brand name, including purses. I am very flexible in life but I would never compromise my kid's health and well being (I would never feed them with formula or canned kids veggies when they were little, I would never let them eat bottled salad dressing or cook something with meat stock from the box). On another hand, I am always flexible with their school attendance as long as they keep all As. We took them numerous times on vacations during school because I believe they can learn much more during a trip than in school.

In my husbands family it is always quantity over quality, I am totally opposite. I would rather have my favorite Zacher tort once a year than over sweetened tasteless American deserts every day. And it is very important for me that my kids grow up appreciating quality over quantity not only in stuff, but in relationship too. Having two best friends is more important than being most popular girl in school or to have hundred friends on the Facebook. Maybe someone can teach their kids this stuff overnight, for me it was a life long experience. And I do believe that it all starts from the childhood.[/quote]

Stop explaining in-depth how you rise above the common way of life that the rest of us put our kids through. It's not your choices so much as your complete lack of self-awareness of what a judgy jerk you sound like that's making me roll my eyes.[/quote]
