[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always refer to it as "luck" with young children. MANY of us go to great colleges, work hard, and we are not rich. I emphasize the importance of working hard, and also acknowledge that sometimes it's not fair.[/quote] I also tell my kid all the time how lucky we are. Lucky to live in America, lucky to have access to fresh food and clean water, lucky to have a home in a wonderful neighborhood with friends surrounding us. She parrots me, and it's lovely so far. For the most part, her school friends have considerably bigger houses with yards, etc. So I'm not looking forward to the inevitable comparisons, but hopefully I'm setting the stage for a little bit of gratitude.
