I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too

        I can’t help but feel pity when I see a child or teenager up to their waist in materialism and appearances.

        Some day, many of those children will have a brutal awakening when the realize that they can’t live the way they did growing up forever.

          It’s called growing up. Everyone has to go through it. We did, they will. Pain is inevitable…
