ParticipantYou know, at first I wasn’t even sure what your comment was regarding. I never really followed that or read it or anything and since I don’t have kids, I don’t have an interest or even a burning desire to read it.
I would have to say that people in your children’s lives will influence them, family, friends, teachers, etc. That’s an obvious given. The topic was more renting versus buying and my point was that whether it was renting or buying, far more greater things are important to children.
Looking back, I couldn’t care less whether my parents owned or rented, which they did both. I was not affected by that. But I remember people in my life and that was more important to me. I grew up in Brooklyn and trying not to give away my age, we moved out of Brooklyn before it got real bad. Certainly environment will have an impact also, of course.
If you read the thread about Clairemont guy in CV, cyphire is moving to Madison, Wisconsin. People w/kids have a lot to consider. But my honest opinion, renting a place doesn’t really make a difference.
I know someone who owns a really nice house in Mission Hills that is rented out. They want their kids to go to a better school. They rent in La Jolla. They did the math and figured cheaper than private, better school. Does it make them bad parents b/c they rent. Do their kids care if they live in the rented house versus the owned? I doubt it. Probably care more about showing their dad tricks on their skateboard.

ParticipantShouldn’t we consider any vehicle parked in the driveway w/low tires collecting spiderwebs that says “wash me” on the rear window?

ParticipantThis got me thinking back. The second place my parents rented was a two-family home. The landlords become very close friends w/my parents. The lady babysat us regularly. She had no kids and she love us kids. My parents stayed in touch ever since, no matter where we moved. My mom was very close to the lady and she recently went to the husband’s funeral. My brother went too. They’re all back east. I probably would’ve gone if I were there. Maybe those were different times. I don’t know. Don’t want to date myself (my psychologist told me to date other people) I think our landlords/friends enriched our lives and I have fond memories of them. Dear people.
