[quote=Anonymous]I grew up/ saw what your children are experiencing. My dad was the only one of 6 siblings to "get out" go to college and get a job. ( he joined the army at 18 to do it.) we were by no means rich growing up - west Springfield, townhouse etc. But when we went to visit his family, my cousins had obviously been told I was a spoiled rich girl. In fact they called me "the rich bitch from Virginia who lives on a plantation" (?) ( until they found out we lived in a townhouse and then made fun of me for living in a 'row house' ). It was horrible and around age 10 I would do anything possible to avoid hose family trips. However, I did see how they were living and I knew I did NOT what to be like that. (Kids at 17, getting into trouble etc). My parents never had to 'warn' or threaten me- I could see it, and it made me work harder in school. [/quote]
