Isn't it interesting how this ease of communication we now have is causing so much damage. <br /><br />How deeply worrying that this is becoming a trend and, even more alarming, that parents are encouraging this as a 'hobby'. I so often find a link between low self-esteem and overspending with the women I coach. <br /><br />Surely, they could be encouraged to find healthier, more fulfilling, 'hobbies'!Simonne Gnessenhttp://www.financial-coaching.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
