[quote=Anonymous]OP, your child will be so proud of you when he's older. I grew up "poor-ish" -- my mom and I used food stamps for a couple years and she cleaned houses and worked odd jobs until she got a job with the state when I was a teenager. She put herself through school (went back to college) and spent years waking up before dawn to study. But we always had food on the table. I may have marveled at friends who had pantries and multiple types of brand name cereal (true story) but I don't remember feeling jealous. And looking back I'm so, so proud of what my mom was able to accomplish.[/quote]
