[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends where you believe yourself to be compared to what you expected. It's not just social comparisons, but your own expectations. You need to work on accepting yourself. My oldest was born with special needs. That took care of a few things right off the bat. We chose to live in an expensive suburb of DC, one with great public schools, but in the smallest house of the entire neighborhood. We still cling to our very ancient and decrepit cars. So that takes care of many other things. And inside... I feel fine. I am blessed with youthful-looking genes and my figure is pretty great for middle age. I am much wealthier than our lifestyle signals. My kid with SN, after a childhood full of incredibly hard work and therapies, managed to get into a decent college. You lose some you win some, OP. That's life. [/quote]
