Video!!

People should be more aware of they are buying because many people buy clothes that there are only going to wear ones.I think that is a waste of money. Not just because its expensive but also because there is a lot of other people that have nothing or little to wear...i remember when i was i was 11 years old and i used to live in Mexico my family was really poor and we didnt have enough money or food to eat. Also because we were 13 children in our family with out counting my mom. As a child i always wanted everything that other girls would have and i couldnt get it because my mom couldnt afforted the things i wanted and that made me really sad.I think is really sad how rich people dont care on what they are spending money on or have because they have everything they want. people are not using their own resources properly. And many people can get affected not every one has the same things others have.

  1. Wow! marlene, i can't believe you have 13 brothers and sisters! I'm the only child,so i don't know what it's like to have big family!
    Anyway, i agree w/ you that we should be more aware of buying things.

  2. i catch myself falling into the trap of wanting more things (that i dont really need) everyonce in a while.
    a video like this does help to bring me back and keep that idea fresh in the mind.

    i agree.

  3. I totaly get were you are coming from because when i was growing up were also poor and i have also experienced wanting things and not being able to afford them. Its because of that that idont take the things that i have now for granted. If everyone grew up the way we did i believe that peopel would take the things they have for granted like you said and like what we saw in the video

  4. Hi! You are right, most of the time people buy things that really don't need and don't appreciate. I also think that rich people should be more caring for poor people, because poor people in underdeveloped countries are the ones who make all the things they use. I know it's really hard to see somethings that you really like and not to buy, but we have to be stronger and overcome the temptation. People should value more the things they have because we have a home where to live, and food to eat, we are lucky.
