It’s hard to explain the concepts of work and money to a small child. If they ask for something you can’t get them it’s best to just say “No.” If you say the reason has something to do with money then they solve that problem right away. “Well, let’s go get some money!”

Get a job, sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la …
And the sad thing is, there are still adults who think it works like this.
Millions of them.
And they vote. 🙁
“Do you think money grows on trees?”
“No… But it does grow in fields… cuz it’s made of cott-” *SMACK!*
if only it were that easy…
What’s worse is hearing a kid say,”Well why don’t you just charge it?” after you’d said you don’t have the money for something.
Even though my family has enough money on hand for nearly any occasion, I MYSELF DON’T!
I think it has more to do with the fact that, when you’re on disability, money goes quickly towards everything.
I hear that.
I finally got a hold on my finances. Got away from “hand to mouth”, paycheck to paycheck. Lovin it. Livin it.
And, BAM!
“Here, Kid. Have some Crohns.”
Now, I spend more on medical bills every year than I bring home – and disability says I still “make too much money”.
My dad didn’t have a problem. When he said no, no one said anything else after that..
