Re: About Birthdays
that's a very nice dress.
look, i am being pretty harsh, it's very tough on poor single mothers out there (especially women of color). raising a kid on your own is certainly tougher than about anything i've done in my life. so, good for you that you have a stable financial outlook and have the means to look out for your daughter. i disagree with some of your spending and i think she would be better off in the long run learning about the value of investing, saving, and working hard, rather than spending a lot of money on highly depreciable consumer goods and stuff for herself that she really doesn't need. i am not saying this out of some puritanical notion that kids have it too easy, but because i have worked with many teenagers from poor backgrounds, broken homes or other adverse circumstances, and the first thing that happened to a lot of them when they got out on their own was they started living well beyond their means due to unreasonable expectations.

Re: About Birthdays
MissT,
Don't listen to NT!, he is clearly jealous because his parents didn't throw him a thirteenenarena. You know what he got for his birthday when he turned thirteen? It was a banner [censored]' year for the nothumb family - he got a carton of cigarettes. His old man grabbed him and said "Hey! Smoke up NT!"

Re: About Birthdays
We usually take the birthday friend to a good dinner. Bar afterwards. Haven't had or been to a birthday party since I was in high school.
While I also don't agree with the spending of missT74, it's her money and her daughter. Last couple birthdays have been pretty uneventful for me. Maybe a dinner here or there. They've been like any other day otherwise. I'm depressed now.
