[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]City kids must be different…they prefer to just walk a couple blocks to commercial areas and get their own food.

We offer for our kids and their friends by they all prefer the independence of going out (I guess they could be lying but my kid says they rarely/never stay at anyone’s house for a meal).

Snacks are a different story.[/quote]

I live in a suburb but with plenty in walking distance.  In my experience this isn’t “city kids” it’s “rich kids”.[/quote]

“Rich” kids going to chipotle or subway or Cava…yeah, they order the caviar.[/quote]

Sorry, I'll say it another way "spoiled kids".  [/quote]

Again…how are they spoiled if they walk to a restaurant and order a $10-$15 meal?  Strange definition of spoiled.

Different poster but my young teens can't afford to do that on the regular and I'm not going to pay for them to do that when they can make a bunch of quesadillas or ramen with their friends at home. Heck I didn't do that for myself. I bring my lunch to work. It's a privilege to be able to afford that.[/quote]

Ok…but most people posting are not providing ramen to the kids…they are ordering them food.  As one mentioned, they order a pizza per kid for $7…which isn’t much less than $10.

Also…these are older teens (many with jobs) who many times use their own money.[/quote]
