During
my friends’ visit, they gave the kids each $10 so they could buy something at a
souvenir shop.
At one
off the main shopping drag he kids went around and around for like 30-40
minutes looking at this thatand the other, and 2 of the 3 were satisfied with
nothing till my friend the dad announced they were leaving in 2-3 minutes, and
they had better pick something out.
“I really
dislike this part of raising kids,” he confided in me, like about 30 minutes
in.
“Then
why give them money and encourage commercialism?”, I was like.
“It’s
like any relationship,” my friend the dad was like. “It’s all about compromise.”
