"Impulse Buying"

         Parents try to provide their children with the necessary things. They try to give you the necessary things. They try to give you the best life possible by giving you more than what you actually need. They want you to have what they couldn’t have in their childhood. This can affect a child in a negative way. Once someone is used to always getting what they want, they want it like this when they grow up. Most likely until the age of eighteen, your parents will provide things for you. What happens after that? You have to get a job and provide for yourself.
         There is a substitute for money now though. Ever since credit cards were used, being in debt was rare. People who buy on impulse are most definitely going to have debt. You see something you want and you don’t think twice to buy it. These habits are introduced at a young age. You cant help it because it is your lifestyle. People let it control them to the point where they lose everything. They become broke and it affects them and the people around them. Some have to learn to control this habit, if its severe they go to rehab for their addiction. Impulse buying shouldn’t take over your life, learn to control it and your life wont be complicated. If children weren’t handed everything they ask for then this problem with impulse buying wouldn’t be occurring. Its up to parents right now to teach their kids the value of money and how you should appreciate the things you have.
