[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 have all of this and more too. You know what the difference is? I feel pride in myself knowing I (and DH) provide those things for our family. Rich kids don’t get that opportunity it seems, which is kind of sad in a way. I’ll have to think about that when my kids are getting ready to leave the nest. You don’t know what you’re capable of because you’ve ever needed to know. No one has forced you to find out.[/quote]
