I'm embarrassed by my family. We don't have money like my friends, what should I do?

Don't be embarrassed. If you feel ashamed that you don't have as much money, tell your friends. most people don't actually mind that much about this kind of thing!

Take heart for your experiences as a person of lesser means. They will develop your intellect and creativity. Your friends who have money will be tested less... eventually, you'll surpass them.

You are a very shallow person!!!! You base things on materialism. Have you a roof over your head, food on the table and a bed to sleep in??

That can be very stressful. You probably hear this often, and I don't want to seem rude, but be thankful you have a family. Some people can be left with nothing. it doesnt matter how much money you have, because you can be rich with happiness. It is better to have less and be content than have much and always be wanting more.

you shoud understand them..its not easy for them. maybe you shoud find a job and help them, so you will have money and it wil be easier for them

Be proud of yourself.. of who you're.. its not like you could buy everything with money.. what you have be grateful.. and if you were born in a family who has less money..its not your fault.. but if you could not do anything to change that thing.. it would be your fault.. so don't let people thoughts/reactions effect you.. work hard.. prove yourself.. and take this as an opportunity to work hard.. and become successful in life.. #good luck.

Your family was the one who made you this big that you can think all this. It was your family who raise you and not your friends' family. Its your family who will support you till the end not them. So rather then feeling embarrassed, work hard to improve the life of everyone. They are the real gold.

It can be really difficult feeling inadequate especially when it comes to money and wealth. I can relate to you here I came from a low income family and had friends with parents who had very high incomes and it is difficult not having the latest this and that or being able to do as much. And you must be feeling very envious. Perhaps you should talk to your friends about this or consider maybe getting a job or doing little handy jobs to earn a few extra pennies for yourself, I know this helped me when I was in college to feel more like I was on a similar level, and it is very rewarding earning your own money :) I hope this helps, try not to let other peoples opinions define you

Never be embarrassed by how much money you have compared to your friends. If they're your friends, they'll understand that you don't need to be rich to be an amazing, kind person. I remember going to a private school and feeling embarrassed that I couldn't afford the stuff they could, but I felt proud nontheless because my family knew the importance of hard-work over materialistic things, compassion over money, and selflessness over spending. As Douglas Adams once said, "To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity."

I don’t believe me giving you my opinion on what you should do will be helpful for you. Would you like to tell me more about why this is making you embarrassed? How is your family life? Have you guys developed any strong bonds? Do you consider your friends to be like family as well? Focusing on the positives in your relationships may be resourceful to you as life and people are more important than material things. Money may feel important now but it’s the people in your life that will bring you true happiness and love you for you
