Price Tags
"Price Tag" by Lucy, from Cambridge, MA, really gives an insight to how money is viewed in her household. She goes on to describe how her perspective on money changes from when she was younger to now.
Personally, Lucy's experience with money is very similar to mine. My family has always been tight on money and trying to save as much as possible. An important lesson for me to learn when I was an infant was the value of a dollar.
Lucy's story is realistic, but it also gives us an idea of her personality without boring us to death by telling us a story about a lesson she learned that she still values.
Things tend to be overpriced nowadays, so it is a necessity that our generation learn to appreciate what they have at their own expense. "Price Tag" is a lesson in itself.
