[quote=Anonymous]Many of your standards seem much higher than mine, but I really struggle with the fact that my kids are "haves." I grew up food-stamp poor but in a middle class community (so my social norms were in line with the community). But even now, I get a little excited that its not a thing to buy my kids new shoes, and that vacations can include a plane ride (domestic only so far). I want them to not be spoiled, but I also worry that my view of "spoiled" is not the same. My husband grew up middle class (lawyer dad, etc) so he balances us out. But this is why I worked so hard to put myself through college, etc so my kids would have an easier life. It's all so existential. [/quote]
