Coming from a family who couldnt afford anything. I have unintentionally overcompensated my own children by giving them whatever I can Whenever I can. Now, they are SPOILED (something I just realized!) My hubby and I have recently come upon hard times and the kids are feeling it. Now no more fancy snacks for school, No friday night movies or trips to visit family then next town over. Once we get back on our feet...I promised myself I am going to change the nasty habit of giving too much....
So if you grew up in a similar circumstance. Please remember Moderation is key... hahaha.

Hello, In my case we have what was necessary . My mother did not work because my father did what her to work only to take care of his 3 kid.She told us if we have this today tomorrow maybe we dont have it. And if we have it she will said i dont have it today.No matter what you have or like , Some day she will tell us today no money for ice cream even if she had it she will said that she did have the money to buy it.That is getting you to know that some day you have something but there will be a day when you don't have the money to buy anything. So get use to it anyway
