Does it bother you...

Does it bother you if your children constantly tell you what the other kids have? My oldest child is always telling me about the other kids. According to him, my 10 year old son he is the ONLY kid with out some sort of game system. Half of the kids his age have a cell phones, they all have a dog, they live in a nice big house and so on. The 4 year old next door has her own TV with satellite service. I have nothing against these kids. I do think alot of paernts over indulge their kids though. I keep telling my kids just be thankful to the good Lord above that you have two parents, 3 siblings, a roof over your head, electricity, clean running water, food and so on. I tell him there are kids a lot worse off than we are. Yes we are poor and we cannot afford all those things but we need to focus on what we DO have. We live in a nice place in a decent neighborhood. LAst year we were in a run down neighborhood in a rundown, roach infested crap hole. thanks for letting me vent a little. I feel better now.
