showy possessions, but you are surrounded by surprising consumption (消费). this contrast is beginning to bother your 6yearold son. you are worried that he will want to live as they do, and wonder if you should move.sometimes big pocket money, joyful birthday parties, special playrooms and superbig houses tell you that your neighbors probably have more money than you do, and that theyre not as careful as you are with money, but you may find that they cook and dig in the garden with their children just as often as you do, talk with them as freely and read to them every night.or you may find that some of these parents stay in one wing of their big house while their child plays by himself, way off in a wing of his own. in that unfortunate case, he is basically growing up alone without being looked after properly, but this can happen to a child who lives in a normalsize house, too, if he has a tv, a computer and a few video games in his room. even the most caring parent doesnt walk in and out of it to see what show her child is watching, what internet site he has found and if hes still playing that video game.too much uncontrolled screen time may lead to a certain loss of innocence (天真), but mostly this child will lose the sense of unity and satisfaction, and if it doesnt, you might decide to move. dont judge your neighborhood too harshly (严厉地), though. there are some things that are right with almost any neighborhood and some things that are wrong with the best of them like those superbig houses. the wealth of their owners and the way they throw_money_around may make your son feel sorry for himself, unless you help him understand that you and his dad save some of the money, give some to people who dont have enough and use the rest to pay for whatever the family needs. children want and should be provided with explanations when their parents dont give them what they want. 1what is the problem with the worried parent in the text? aher house isnt as big as her rich neighbors.bher son is left alone without anyone in charge.cshe cannot provide her son with a special playroom.ds
