[quote=Anonymous]Kids have no concept of money. When my ten year old saw that a Starbucks drink was $6 (absurd to me) she thought it was a a great deal! I asked what she thought it would cost and she said “like $20!” Kids this age have no idea. We also live well beneath our means (though not nearly as rich as OP sounds) and are constantly explaining to our kids that just because we CAN afford something, doesn’t mean we choose to. Like $120 Lululemon leggings. My daughters friends have them and I think it’s the dumbest waste of money ever. We can afford it, but if DD wants them she has to pay for them herself or ask as a birthday or Christmas gift. I’m not buying them “just because.”[/quote]
