A powerful word, Kat. So true! Well done for making us think of social issues like this in just 3 lines. Discussing want versus need is a whole topic area in itself. 🙂

I can guarantee you we don’t fit in that category, even though my daughter thinks we do! 😉 Very good message, Kat.

  Haha. It’s amazing how quickly children figure it out once they move out on their own. 😉
