[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The question is whether you care about the opinions of kids who would stigmatize others because of the size of their  house (when small houses are already 800K.) Really, OP, can't you see how ridiculous this is?

It's people who worry about this that are the creators of the stigma, and it sounds like you are one of them.

Buy what suits you and feels appropriate for your family (and in an ideal world, what is also at least somewhat environmentally responsible)[/quote]

We live in a 1500sf cape, and it is Teen Central around here.  Our kids' friends are in an out, make themselves at home, love being here, because it is warm and homey and there's always a lot of good food and music.[/quote]

LOL i like the part about good music. Is that your's or your kids heh.[/quote]

Both.

My kids' friends are always here, always.  Many of them walk in without knocking, they are so comfortable here.  They have out in our livingroom, tiny partially-finished basement, and on the deck.  We don't have a family room or den, but that doesn't seem to matter.  Many of them live in larger houses better-suited to hanging out in a group, but they prefer our place.  They cram themselves into our boxy little rooms, LOL.

Sometimes it drives me bonkers but mostly I love it.[/quote]
