At first i thought this was going to be a slam by a certain person on these threads , but I have been very blessed and grateful in life along with my brother with what my parents have given and have helped us with. My grandparents also by settling us up financially for our lives and the lives of our children. Yes i have things and been given things most ppl my age are still trying to obtain ,and yes i didn't work hard to obtain those things, but i also believe in helping those who need help and i would give the shirt off my back to someone i knew who needs it.

Some ppl who misinterept things on here(GC) think i am spoiled pampered princess and i am not in any way! I have just been very very blessed with what i was given ...i thank God everyday for what i have! I also thank God for not having a student loan!

I work very hard for what i get in life now. i make a salary like everyone and have a budget of what i can and cannot spend. Yes i would like to go to convention but the cost is outside my means and i think it is more important my child has things he needs before my own needs. My parents use to pay for my utilities and car payments and car insurance and pay for health insurance as well as pay my credit card bills... but i am an adult and i pay for those things now because i was given an education to learn to take care of myself with a good job.

they have given me something i am very proud of and will boast about .....they instilled in me good morals and values and the ideology of don't bite off more than you can chew and dont spend outside your means.
