[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yep, it's the area. Wait till all their friends start getting brand new cars for their birthday.[/quote] OP here - I'm actually prepared for that as it's a nationwide thing, not just Bethesda! DH and I grew up in suburbia where if you didn't have a car, friends with a car, or a stay home parent to drive you some place, you weren't going -- there was no walkability, no subway/metro etc. That was actually a big thing for me that my parents didn't by me a car (used) AND didn't allow me to get a job so I could save up for a car -- and I was quite resentful. And even in my above average but not rich suburb, the rich kids got brand new SUVs the moment they got a license. I've always been 100% unwavering that each one gets a car on their 16th birthday. It'll be like a basic model Honda/Toyota, not a Mercedes, and if we have one to hand down at that time, fine; if not, they will get new cars.[/quote]
