  I grew up with a tenuous grasp on the middle class and generally don’t buy much premium shit. My most expensive shoes are a $100 pair I wear with a suit. The shoes I wear most days are $25. You’re just an asshole, is all.

      You’re the asshole for passing judgement on people who are trying to protect their kids from circumstances that are unknown to you.

    Yes, not giving in to toxic bullying for having less money makes you an asshole, right.
    What if another parent doesn’t even have the choice to give in bcs they can’t afford it? too bad for the kid right?
    You’re the POS here.

    Your feet deserve better shoes than that. The old adage goes, never cheap out on anything that goes between you and the ground - tires, shoes and beds are all worth buying a bit more up market than you usually might
