“It’s not easy being a mother of a nineteen-year-old entering the adult world. As they say – small children, little trouble, big children, big trouble. This saying works perfectly in my case. I’ve been through a lot, but a teenage child is one of the challenges with which is simply the hardest for me. Today’s children need much more attention and support, not only in the form of kind words, but also their parents’ fat wallets.
The mother lists the costs of her daughter’s prom: Make-up PLN 300, hairdresser PLN 300, dress PLN 500, accessories PLN 300, shoes PLN 500
My daughter is in her third year of high school and will soon take her final exams. I don’t even want to say how much stress and additional emotions this causes for us. I have the impression that Natalia is so overstimulated that because of her, everyone in the house has to have their own place and it’s best not to get in her way. We try to help her and we actually don’t get angry at her because we know it’s a difficult time, but sometimes she exaggerates. Especially when it comes to prom, which is only a few days away. Natalia wants to shine and chooses the most expensive services. Your daughter’s prom costs a fortune. I guess I should take out a loan for this. What a disaster, I’m ashamed, but it’s the truth. Make-up PLN 300, hairdresser PLN 300, dress PLN 500, accessories PLN 300, shoes PLN 500. Not to mention the entry ticket for her and her accompanying person. Plus the cameraman, photographer, sound costs and everything else. Well, I don’t know if I’ll reach 3,000 thousand. A surefire loan!
“I don’t know where I will get the money, but I don’t want to make my daughter feel bad, so she will probably get everything she expects.”
I often talk to other parents and unfortunately my daughter is not the only one who cares about her appearance. At this age, it’s natural, because I had a similar experience, but due to the prices, the children should forgive us and let the air out a little. With three children, it’s hard to save anything. We also have a home loan. I don’t know where the money will come from, but I don’t want to make my daughter feel bad, so she will probably get everything she expects. Parenting is really difficult, and situations like this show that sometimes we can do a lot to make a child happy. I won’t take a loan, but I’ll think of something.
