* Your daughter and son-in-law are having kids with no firm financial footing or educational achievements, both killers of upward mobility
* You encouraged your second youngest daughter to take out loans to go to paramedic's school in Idaho when there are tons more in Florida
*Your jaw-dropping reaction to hearing that my mother has a PhD is condescending and patronizing. Women can leave the home and make careers for themselves and actually pull in a decent salary
*An accountant, like you, has a decent average salary. But when you have four kids, a non-working wife, and need to be sold on credit unions (puzzling since you're an accountant), money will be TIGHT!
So, when you feel insecure about the boss' Beamer, please remember the choices you've encouraged or ignored within your own family.
