[quote=Anonymous]Here is a list of the things I spent money on for my 12 year old today (who has braces and is getting a retainer next month): 1. Ice skating six-week session 2. Organic cherries 3. Two pairs of Nikes (luckily the last two pairs have lasted all school year) 4. A shirt from Forever 21 that she said was $15 but was really $20 5. A starbucks drink 6. A crepe 7. Nail polish remover 8. Fancy cheese at Whole Foods 9. Dried seaweed (I was able to steer her towards the $1.69 package rather than the $5.99 package) 10. Half hour private ice skating lesson (in addition to her weekly classes) Now sure, you can say no to all these things and downgrade the ones you can't. But for a middle class kid this is pretty average. [/quote]
