[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are "haves". They have a fully funded college education, they will be gifted money for their first down payment, they have tutors when they need it, they have music lessons and play an expensive sport, they are bilingual, they have braces, they have healthy home cooked food every day, they have parents who are home each day by 5pm and everyone eats dinner around the table, they have a large extended family that lives locally, they have nice vacations and have been able to do things like hike the Inca trail and are able to see first hand what they've learned in school, they have a family who models what it means to be a healthy adult, they have access to a great education. I'm not ashamed my kids are have, nor do I try to make them think thry are not haves. They have opportunities and doors pushed wide open for them to walk right in. We hope they one day step through the thresh hold. [/quote] So much drama and flowery language! We hope they one day step through the thresh hold [sic]. [/quote] Really, you all are delusional if you think this is not a “have”. The OP askedan opinion and the above poster responded with her definition. Yes, it is definitely not typical of most kids growing up in the US today. It is so easy to only compare yourself to those in your immediate surroundings but even there...most kids are NOT growing up with UMC advantages and healthy parents who are modeling healthy adult relationships. Good for you- PP! [/quote]
