What the Fair is about For Parents


Pouring money down the proverbial drain.

You know, this summer we did more than ever for our kids. We threw caution to the wind and did things we hardly ever do. Our cash flow is a little higher right now and we wanted to spend it on memories for our family.

But the end result, as I noticed yesterday, is not gratitude, but a constant asking for more. When we pay for rides and food, they want money for games. It's always MORE MORE MORE.

Not to say this isn't typical behavior, but when your kids don't really get much, you want to say to yourself, well, they get so little it's no wonder they want more.

But when they get a lot and they still want more? Annoying.
