Maybe I just grew up in a very privileged family but imo only having money to pay rent and bills is ridic poor.

I would imagine the number of families in this position and either going without any luxuries or racking up the credit is huuuuge

I bet most families go with the credit option and think about the problems when it's too late though.

So do people think that Kev is wrong that parents who are able to afford Crimbo presents for their kids (not to be confused with Multaiii ppl) are equally likely to play with their kids than those who aren't? If so, why?

I just think that in many cases, the circumstances which led to them not being able to buy xmas presents would be the same reasons they don't/can't play with their kids as much.

Most families in a troubled spot obv. Not most in general.

Don't get the WW2 ref tho - it's pretty relevant today.
