“Because one has little fear of shocking vanity in Italy, people adopt an intimate tone very quickly and discuss personal things.”

“Children should know there are limits to family finances or they will confuse “we can’t afford that” with “they don’t want me to have it.” The first statement is a realistic and objective assessment of a situation, while the other carries an emotional message.”
