Question: Does recession mean 1 pot of beans for a family of 12 for a week, or no cell phones and big screens for KIDS!?
I am honestly confused!. I see every college drinking starbucks, driving their own cars, wearing coach bags, shopping for Iphones, laptops, and new flat screen t!.v!.s for their very own apartments!. I could on with how tots, children, and teenagers spend, but you get the point!. SO, does recession or depression mean what my grandfather explained where his family of 12 ate one pot of beans for a week, or does it mean kids may have to actually get summer jobs to pay for their $400 phones!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Wow!. I tell you one thing I agree with you 100%!. I am 29 years old tomorrow and can't even do anything for my Birthday!. Not even Burger King! Yet I see these kids walking around with Gucci bags and Iphones with Ipods and OMG heaven forbid they have to have freakin 200 shoes!.
I am not mad at the kids though!. It's the parents that keep giving it to them!. They work 2 jobs just to buy this crap!. Then when their kids have to do without they want to know why the scream and yell I hate you at the Mall!.
I think its a shame!. I really wish parents would not do things like this to their kids!. It's teaching them greed!. That is why so many kids get into trouble!. UGH!. You got me started! Www@QuestionHome@Com
