Are Nike, Vance, Converse expensive for the average family?

Coincidentally, I just bought my son a pair of Vans. It was fun. He played skateboard and wanted me to buy him a pair of Vans. He said that the shoes with the apron were the standard, and it was easy to control and make movements. I suspected that he had a plan in mind. He knew THAT I had always been a tool control, and respected a good horse with a good saddle and a good knife not to cut wood by mistake. He touched my mind and said. As for me, frankly speaking, I think these shoes are a bit expensive. I could wear a pair of shoes for years at my price. Besides, it takes a lot of money to wear out a pair of shoes in a month. (Lowering his expectations) Actually, in my heart, I already want to buy it for him. Because children's consumption concept is different from us, especially teenagers. We think eating is important, but they think image is more important, even instant noodles every day. To respect their consumption concept, do not impose their decades of polished consumption concept on children, do not easily buckle vanity hat to children. And the boy would rather not wear is also absolutely reject fake, can not buy imitation goods to fool him. So when we were choosing shoes, I kept saying, oh, this one looks good but it's too expensive to change it, how can I be so discerning? The most expensive ones are all in my eyes, let's pick a basic one. Finally, we picked the one under two thousand yuan, he satisfied his wish, AND I was glad that I didn't spend too much "wasted money" and everyone was happy. Then he volunteered to buy a pair of boomerangs! I usually practice board by myself to wear back, so that the Vans can wear longer. More sensible children ah can put me happy bad, I quickly accompanied him to buy back, just less than a hundred like. I patted my chest and said to my son, "Grind freely and build vigorously!" Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Well, I have the audacity to turn a bargain opportunity into a gift. Such a child, although from time to time to a little blackmail ME, in fact, or very sensible! It's not about keeping up with the joneses, vans wants it, and it's cool! (kua his son is so smelly shameless) teenage children began to face the outside world, really will be consumption to surge, see what all want, myself at that age, so the parents that if a little demand for the parents decide for "no need to not worth" is always not satisfied if really will be very lost, It is not vanity if it is not taken to show off. I often tell him, class differences are staring the reality, it is difficult to cross, let's own measure out of line and do not let the consumption level of envy rich second generation you haven't the strength to climb hit swollen face depth do more harm than good, don't look down upon some poor poor people, they have their own happiness in which there are undiscovered talent, There may be all kinds of inequality and injustice between people, but they are equal in personality. He has come to believe that showing off something is low. So I am at ease, appetite is terrible, blindly suppress consumption desire is not good. To put it bluntly, in the prime of life, who does not want to be ostentatious and unbridled?
