I grew up always being reminded that if I needed new cloths or something to eat when we were away from home that we couldn't afford new cloths, or to eat out!
As an adult I still consistently remind myself what I can't afford, so I wear my cloths right out for years and rarely enjoy a good meal out.
I think its important your child is prepared for the real life, but I wonder if I really want to give my kids that fright to feel like their parents could possibly not be able to provide for them. Its my job as parent to keep my kids cared for, and I don't want to doubt my ability to do so.
I feel as though its okay to make them believe they have to work for what they want, but not consistently giving them the idea we are poor. I don't want to play a lie in their heads about our life status, but I just don't want them to worry like I had to about wither I could eat or get new cloths if I couldn't fit into my old ones or they got tore.
I was talking to a little girl the other day on the bus, and she was crying that her lips hurt. I told her they were chapped, and she needed to get some chap stick. She admittedly said "oh, no my Mom can't afford chap stick" I knew this feeling all to well, and felt pitty that the child was so aware of this.
What do you think? Would you want your kids to have that realisation about money, like it runs their lives right from the beginining?
Thanks for your answers!
