[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you so much for all this insight. The poster that said they need to have some skin in this is so right. I came from a pretty large family. We paid for anything that was not a necessity. I remember getting a "real" job on my 15 th birthday and being excited to start! My siblings and I paid for our own cars, insurance, clothes, entertainment,and so on. When I talk about this with my kids, my son will say "We get it mom, you had a hard life." My reply? No we didn't. Sure it was hard sometimes but it was fun too. Anyway I think my mistake was trying to spare them some of that. They both work in the summer. They really are good kids. I just hope I can turn this around. Oh, and I didn't say anything to my DH about the Christmas incident or a few other things. I didn't want it to become him coming to the rescue. They would apologize and not really mean it. I want them to understand on their own.[/quote]
