I think in a lot of cases our parents had it a little harder than we do now. My mom still talks about how they used to splurge on Oreo cookies if they had a few extra dollars from their paychecks left. I think our generation just spends more on luxury items than our parents used too.




VERY TRUE. My parents want to help my sister and I because they know how hard it is to be raising a family.

My ILs much more than my parents, but yes, both sets will make their comments here and there. It can be really frustrating. I understand that they're trying to "help", but nobody's perfect with their finances...

My parents may give unsolicited advice every once in a while but it doesn't really bother me. The inlaws ask, talk, raise eyebrows, tell us what we should do etc.
Since no one else is paying our bills I don't really care what any of them has to say.
