Spending More Doesn’t Mean You’re a Good Parent

When we trace the source of discontent in many upwardly mobile families, it would be about money. It’s always about the money. Young parents nowadays have a preconception that the more they give to their children, the better parents they are. This isn’t exactly true anymore.

We aren’t living in the thirties or during the Depression. We’re living in a world ruled by the free market, and we’re all for flexible work hours and more savings. We are also opting for more and more uses of instant credit. So next time you think of buying a pair of sneakers with more than $40 in value, think whether the purchase would matter in five years. If you answer no, then you know what to do.
