[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ah, DCUM. Where it is cheap-ass "1950s tough love hyperbole" to expect your kid to buy their own Starbucks and movie tickets. Never change.[/quote] One thing is that a lot of kids enjoy being frugal, and COVID limits what some kids can actually spend money on. I’m the parent sending $500 per month to a kid in The Hague who has to make all of his meals. He takes great pride in telling us how much he has left over every month. I’d be happy to send him more if he’d use it to go party, and maybe drink an occasional beer, but he’s horrified by the idea of other kids drinking beer. So, you never know. Some kids somehow end up with an Inner School Marm, in spite of our best efforts to promote frivolity. [/quote]
