With all these talk about going from homes to apartments, I wondered how many people think:
1. Going from a home to an apartment is moving "down" in life. (I am not speaking of after the kids grow up and you sell your home to OWN an apartment/condo/townhouse, but a family that owns a home and then sells it to rent an apt.)
2. What are the advantages when you own something and have equity and then go to giving someone else your money to pay THEIR bills?
3. How bad would it have to be living in your home to make the decision to do this?
4. What advantages and/or disadvantages are there to living in an apartment vs living in

B/c you questioned if maybe it was a regional thing.

My neighbor has a party for her dd every year. We all go as do the other parents and have a great time. The kids go swimming, went on pony rides one year, play on the swings, water balloons, badmitton, crafts. Of course she didn't "need" us there and I have known her technically for 30 years but when you do these things year after year, it is nice to see the same people.
I dunno, I guess we just don't see the need.
Nope. Again I do 1-3 or 2-4 not a meal time. if I did 3-5 it still wouldn't be a meal time. If I have a sleepover for Liza I feed them dinner and breakfast. My mommy contract did not say "thou shalt feed the parents of all thy childs friends lest though be thought cheap." I also have never BEEN fed at a kids birthday party anything but cake if I wanted it.

Yes. We. Did.
I am guilty of that for Nikki's 6th birthday.
I think it's a matter of just doing things differently in different areas.
