Thank you very much!
I think my story should have been put in next friday's show board (Shopaholics), but I am still glad it was published, because of what I said: People need, like I did, to STOP defining themselves with what they have, but with what they are!
In the case of those girls driving their parents nuts with these parties, I think the parents do them no favor by accepting to finance these events.
It is RIDICULOUS!
All these people attending these parties... I wonder if they would still be around if these girls were making "regular" parties, if they had less money.
I have a 18 year old cousin. When his mom passed away a few years ago, he got money and suddenly, he had tons of "friends". My cousin was often asked to pay for their restaurants plates, gas in their cars... because "he was the rich one". My cousin was insecure at the time and accepted this because he didn't want to lose his "friends". Well the day he decided "That is enough, I am tired to pay for them each time we go out".... he found himself with no one around. This is when he realized he needed friends who were there for HIM, not for his cash.
These parents need to stop spoiling their kids and start teaching them the true values of life!
