[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] You are not poor. You are not rich.[/quote]
Sorry, but OP IS "rich" compared to the rest of the country. You can't just think in terms of the D.C private school bubble. OP, the point is your have to teach your kids that they have a lot and why that is -- e.g., you and your husband worked hard to get good jobs, you or your husband grew up with some advantages, you inherited some money, etc., whatever the case may be. Children should know where income comes from and why you have it. You have to teach them not to be bothered by the fact that others have more. Some people were born on third base, while others don't know the rules of the game. Teach them the truth. Don't dwell on your perceived income inferiority. Have them volunteer and interact with people who are truly impoverished.

I hate ignorant posts like this. Taking it a step further, the rest of the US is "rich" compared to many third world countries. Comparisons between high col and low col places are worthless for thinking about OPs question.[/quote]
