Feeling undeserving

I’ve been thinking about things from my childhood, I have a specific memory of my mom surprising me with a robot toy. I remember feeling sad like I didn’t deserve it. I was bought toys and don’t remember feeling that way any other time. No other context I can think of besides I did feel I loved a lot as a kid. My parents weren’t around or engaged much.

oops

My partner and I were talking, she thinks I don’t value nicer things that cost money as much because of this. But I wasn’t sure. I know I’ve had a scarcity mindset growing up
