[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will your kids be able to accept a steep decline in their standard of living when they are first out on their own? Or do they expect to be able to have Apple and Tiffany and whatever other name brand you can think of? I think it's a good test of whether they are entitled or not. Too bad it takes until college.[/quote] It won't take until college. The spoiling parents will continue to spoil them throughout college and things will get ugly when the snowflakes graduate, and think that a BA degree entitles them to a starting salary of $100k and an apartment in Georgetown. [/quote] Is is spoiling because it's something you can't afford? If DH and I sit in first class, should DC sit in coach with the nanny? If we want to ski in the Alps, should we send the kids on a separate trip to Ski Liberty? If I'm in Nordstrom buying clothes for me, do I have to schlep out to Walmart to buy things for the kids? Will this teach them a lesson? Just because it's expensive for you, doesn't mean it's expensive for me. [/quote] God- you sound like a self-entitled bitch. A classless one. Signed, Fellow First Class flier that has to sit near your bratty children and watch you order around the flight attendants You aren't smart enough to realize it is not having money alone that is the cause of becoming self-entitled. It is the parents' attitudes and personality. Your snippy rant about how well off you are is a perfect example of people I don't want around my kids. [/quote]
