[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look it's fine if your parents give you money for down payments and fancy vacations and private school/college money for your multiple kids.

But just realize that when your regular middle class friends learn about that stuff, they're probably going to feel weird about. Insecure or lesser than.

It's ok.[/quote]

And, actually, please also realize:  we are going to start looking down on you a little bit, because we thought you were doing it all on your own, like we are, and yet we realize you are actually just a little bit soft, weaker than we thought.  Spoiled.  Babied.  Helped.  [/quote]

That's OK.  If you want to look down on me while I'm in Aspen for winter break, and Europe for 2 weeks in the summer, and because of the fully funded private school and college tuition, I'll somehow summon the strength to carry on.  [/quote]

I'm a NP. I think it's FINE for you to have those things, whether you paid for them or your parents or whatever. I have these things too (save the private school). What's not cool is your attitude. You seem smug and, well, kind of like a rich bitch. Be humble. You don't have to apologize for the things you have. I grew up poor and I will not apologize for 1 second for giving myself and my kid every comfort or (for DC) advantage I didn't have. But, I'm not going to throw it in peoples' faces like your above. It's distasteful. It's tacky. And it's unnecessary. Be better. [/quote]

I am the PP you are responding to.  Did you actually read the post I responded to?  The one that said that the poster looked down on others as soft, weaker than we thought, spoiled, and babied?  Given that, I'm perfectly justified in responding with a bit of smugness - which, by the way, is *far* less offensive that what was thrown out there.  So, it was necessary, and you can take your "be better" crap and stick it.  [/quote]

Aren’t you a delicate flower! No one cares about aspen, just don’t be a d**k about it, ffs. [/quote]
