[QUOTE="olroadbeech, post: 4486235, member: 52145"] That's old school and we did the same thing with our children. when they would whine about another kid in school getting the newest gizmo or car from mommie and daddy I would just tell them to get a job. of course they didnt like it at the time but now they are all in their 30's and have nice cars and some bought houses on their own. They laugh at their peers that still live at home or need constant help from their folks. BTW , I learned this from my parents of course who grew up during the Great Depression. My grandparents grew up in hard times also in the Old Country and came to America for better opportunities and learned if you want something in life you better goddam work for it. [/QUOTE]
