Oh, the Irony!

July 22nd, 2008 . by economistmom

I was signed up to attend this New America event this morning, called “Are Today’s Teens Better Off Than Their Parents?”  In fact, I had arranged to bring my 16-year-old daughter with me who sounded mildly interested when I invited her.  But my best laid plans fell through when I had to adjust to the last-minute changes in my daughter’s social calendar (I won’t elaborate).  So I ended up missing the event as well.  Oh, the irony!

I hope they’ll post a transcript so I can see what the consensus answer of the experts is.  I only know the answer to that question as it applies in my own family!

    just remember that when they tell you your daughter will not get as good a deal on her Social Security as you will. After all, what does your daughter owe you?
