[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up with my parents telling me we could never afford any of the things I wanted. It was incredibly rough. I also thought we were poor. Turns out we weren’t poor, my parents just weren’t good at that part of parenting. Don’t be like them, find a middle ground.[/quote] Same. I was ostracized in the 80s for not having brand name clothes (Izod and Polo shirts, Lee and Levi jeans, etc). I was wearing crap from Goodwill. I didn't even have socks or underwear. My mother, bitter about the divorce she initiated and the crash in lifestyle that came with us, was always going on about how destitute we were. Turns out, she had plenty of money -- she is just a money hoarder and won't spend it on necessities (although she had plenty of nice clothes for herself). [/quote]
