[quote=Anonymous]OP how do you know that they are not paying for it themselves? My immigrant parents lived in a not so great neighborhood when we were growing up and while they did not have college grad jobs, they saved everything they could. We got thrift store clothes, old used cars, no camps, no expensive after school activities, etc. but they had plenty saved up and would have paid for any essential thing I needed such as braces. (However they would not have been the same braces from the fancy orthodontist's office that you frequent with your kids).[/quote]
