I have heard good things about the book Silver Spoon Kids, which is on my "to read" list. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-worry-that-your-loss-life-is-too-easy#post-359272 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 22:02:43 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 359272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I worry about this a fair deal. I try to instill the immigrant mentality that my parents instilled in me, but it's harder than I could imagine, especially considering the different SES. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-worry-that-your-loss-life-is-too-easy#post-359269 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 21:59:57 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 359269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmmm, I don't know if my kids will have an easier life than me. Maybe a bit? We grew up without a ton of money (and so did Mr SH) and I always swore that I would get a great career so that I could buy my kids all sorts of things. Now that I'm an adult, I better understand the choices my parents made and find that we've chosen a path that values time spent together and happiness over making lots of money.</p> <p>That said, I remember when I was planning out Toddler Girl's nursery and feeling good about not buying any new furniture, my mom said how nice it was that I could afford to buy whatever pretty fabric I wanted for the room. It's all perspective, I guess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-worry-that-your-loss-life-is-too-easy#post-359201 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 21:02:43 +0000 Honeybee 359201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do... I think all parents want to instill good values but my kids have a much easier life than I did growing up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-worry-that-your-loss-life-is-too-easy#post-359057 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 18:43:30 +0000 HabesBabe 359057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Uh, definitely. I'm trying hard not to spoil her with gadgets and toys and stuff like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-worry-that-your-loss-life-is-too-easy#post-359051 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 18:36:59 +0000 Andrea 359051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I already had it so easy compared to what my parents went through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-worry-that-your-loss-life-is-too-easy#post-359045 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 18:31:31 +0000 JoJoGirl 359045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sure my parents said the same about me! :) I know for a fact my grandmother did. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-worry-that-your-loss-life-is-too-easy#post-359044 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 18:29:45 +0000 mrbee 359044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I literally shake my head in amazement on a regular basis at how good our kids have it!</p> <p>I worry sooo much that their lives are too easy. I want to toughen the kids up... maybe I will send them to live with my parents for a summer. They live in the Philippines, and between the humid summers and the lack of a/c, the kids would be shocked into toughness I bet!</p> <p>That said, we work hard to keep the kids from getting spoiled and lazy. Still though, in today's culture, it's hard to raise truly un-spoiled children. Hopefully not impossible though!</p> <p>Do you ever worry that your LO(s)'s life is too easy? </p>
