[quote=Anonymous]My grandparents had a self-sacrificing mentality. They gave all they had to provide educational and other opportunities to their children and grandchildren as we were growing up. They lived on a more limited fixed income in retirement as a result. My parents repeated this pattern, and now so am I. As grown-ups, my cousins, siblings, and I have almost competed to see who could do the most for our grandparents and parents. We are far better off financially than the last two generations because of their sacrifice. It gives us great pleasure to provide trips and fine meals to the people who enjoyed so little of those things in our childhood. It's really revolting to read how so many of you resent your elders and how selfish you are. Your children are watching and learning the wrong values. [/quote]
