[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up very poor. My father was a janitor. He was home from work every day by 4:00 and we went bike riding or went swimming at the lake. We all sat at the dinner table at 6:00 and ate a home cooked meal together. My mom always took me to the library and did crafts with me. I understand the value of hard work and taking nothing for granted. I'm extremely well off financially now. However, my husband gets home at 8:00 every night just as my children are going to bed. I have a high stress job and feel overextended much of the time. We sit for a meal as a family only once a week. The only real quality time we have as a family is on the weekends. I worry that my kids don't have nearly as special a childhood as I did. [/quote] I think about situations like this often and wonderingiflowincome is so bad that passing on family time and memories makes up for i.[/quote]
