Lisa, I have to LOL at your post because my kids had the same upbringing, they said "We are soooo 'underprivelaged, Mom" because of the no gaming, no movies, etc and definitely no Disney trip when they were growing up but instead we opened up the doors and said go play outside and we had a swamp land close by they had such fun there and still take hikes into the 'wild' and now are glad of it.

LOL, yes my angels tell me how "mean" I am for not buying them the newest thing. We have a small farm so they go work their 4-h animals or shovel manure if they are really bored Funny though usually if you wait you can pick up anything you need or want free when others discard it cause a newer thing they must have! I think being Green is an attitude and livestyle adjustment most are not willing to make because it's inconvient.
