But, what to say of parents who are willing to trade in their old good car to a swanky new one because his colleague has the latest model!!Visalakshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11023574346006075879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5712777399590271317.post-10410077723138070892008-12-18T18:31:00.000+05:302008-12-18T18:31:00.000+05:30Ammavasaikkum Abdul Qadarukkum enna sambandam????E...Ammavasaikkum Abdul Qadarukkum enna sambandam????<BR/><BR/>Extravagance is not limited to geographical boundaries, rather is a direct function of affluence. And, the need to fill your child's life with toys is because of the void created by you when you chose to work away from the child's myriad family like the grand parents, aunts and uncles. What they lose in terms of affection, we are but trying to fill with cheap substitutes.Guru.B.Mhanyanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200078036477286236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5712777399590271317.post-25718468024386154812008-12-16T21:53:00.000+05:302008-12-16T21:53:00.000+05:30Nice read...If you say apt living is pricey..you s...Nice read...If you say apt living is pricey..you should come here to US to see how parents spend recklessly on toys for kids..A girl child will have min of 10 baby dolls and boys will have dozens of dinosaurs and cars...<BR/>I always felt the child will never learn the value of the money or even the doll, when they have too much of one thing. I always felt happy everytime Ananya referred to "Sundu" as being her younger brother..even though it is dirty and shabby with the child's maintanence..she values the doll and considers him as his brother...<BR/><BR/>Not to mention the lavish b'day parties a child demands and the expensive gifts he/she expects..or even the barbie/dinosaur/disney cake they ask for..Even parents tend to overspend/overdo such things for the sake showing status among frnds..I used to wonder..Gone are those days when we used to wear "1" new dress..early morning and take a box of chocolates, carefully counted previous night..go and give them to neighbours and recieve blessing by doing namaskaram and most imp the b'day song the whole class sings for you...I cherish those days of mine and always b'day's were a very very special day..Ramahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04562481356527802595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5712777399590271317.post-37363729282666454572008-12-16T21:51:00.000+05:302008-12-16T21:51:00.000+05:30This comment has been removed by the author.Ramahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04562481356527802595noreply@blogger.com
