Not bad. We occasionally ruin our daughters life by not letting her do or have everything she wants. Poor little dears have it so tough.
My parents lived in two home made tents when they got married. My mother 'did time' in an orphanage as a child - she would risk punishment to sneak out of bounds to a local dam to catch yabbies to supplement her diet. Boy have we got a lot of stories to bash our kids ears with in coming years.
I forwarded the link to home, I am sure our daughter (Erin) will relate to this terrible situation! I mean, she is over 18 and still doesn't even have a car!
