Don't get me started on this broadbrush stroke!
I SO wish I had SJ and others way with words because I very much want to respond clearly to this statement.
We are fortunate enough to "have money" but grew up without money, so have lived both lives (with and without). What we value in life has not changed and we work to keep it that way so our daughter can remain a well-grounded "real" person without the materialistic wants which we see in some other teens.
I will have to WORK on a response, because I so want to state my case, but the words aren't there right now - only the irritation at such generalities! :roll: Later
