My 17 year old has a high class mindset

My son wants everything new or he'd rather wear the same thing until it rots. I have no shame shopping at goodwill and other thrift stores because I am on a budget. He wants his budget higher at a retail store. It's hard to reason with him and it would be a shame if I bought his brother (9) and sister (16) clothes and he's wearing a faded name brand shirt. The part that hurts my feelings is when our car broke down. I rode the city bus for months until I could afford another one. After getting it, he refused to ride in the car because it's old. He would rather stay home than to be caught inside it. If he keeps this mindset, he's going to have hardships unless he plans to work for the rest of his life to get all the lavish things. I missed the mark somewhere because everyone is humble except him. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/3fXgYLe
