[quote=Anonymous]My first job out of college I made more than my parents combined after they had worked for 30 years (first gen to go to college). We never took trips. I never had any attention (honestly my parents were probably just exhausted and had small visions of the world from growing up poor). I had no extra activities, no playdates, never got the "new toy" (still remember how everyone else eventually got a walkman and I never did). So I'm pretty focused on giving my kid a lot of exposure, a lot of opportunities, a lot of experiences. I'm deeply invested in her expansion, not necessarily "things" but experiences (trips, private school, activities, etc.). [/quote]
