    Richer children are often less satisfied and happier than poorer children for a few key reasons: 1) Richer children constantly want new toys, gadgets, and clothes once they grow bored of what they have, whereas poorer children appreciate what they have more since it is precious. 2) Children from wealthy families often lack love and family atmosphere since their parents are too busy working and hire nannies to care for the children. 3) When problems arise, poorer children can ask their parents for advice whereas richer children feel they cannot share feelings with distant parents. 4) Money cannot buy true friendship or love for children, which are important for happiness, whereas poorer families tend to have closer community support

    The statement “rich children are generally happier than those from poorer” is not really true, this

    is due to because children from richer families never feel satisfied with what they have. They will
    get bored of the stuff/item that they bought, and buy themselves something new. An example,
    toys, gadgets, clothes. Once they get tired of the old ones, they will always want a new item. A
    scenario: A boy has just bought an iPhone 4s. Few months after, the iPhone 5 was released. He
    decides that the iPhone 4s is the "past" and then buys the iPhone 5 immediately it was
    released. This is an example to show that richer children can never be satisfied with what they
    have. Whereas poorer children appreciate what they have as they know how hard their parents
    work to get them the things they want. They will see it as a precious gift and cherish it in
    whatever ways they can to show their appreciation.
    In a family with high income, parents usually do not realize that their children not only need their
    money but their love. They usually busy working and leave their responsibility of taking care of
    their children for nursemaids. As a result, children from rich family usually lack of love and lack
    of "family atmosphere". They tend to not share their feeling with parents when they are in their
    teen-age, as they think their parents will not listen to them when they are busy working. It will be
    worse when they have nobody beside them when they need a piece of advice, so they do what
    they think, and go on the wrong way. "Rich children" usually land in impasses, feel unhappy and
    disappointed because they do not know what to do. In spite of that, children from families with
    lower income always can ask their parents for advice, and their parents always are there to
    share their feeling. They never have to solve their problems by their selves. In additional, these
    children know how to share their feeling, and it makes them happier than "rich" children, who
    cannot say that they are depressed and then keep this feeling inside them forever.

    Rich people expect more and can never really meet they're wishes. Poor people don't expect as
    much and live happily with how they are. Also, Rich people isolate themselves from their
    friends, family, and the important people around them. On the other hand poor people have
    they're friends and family as close as they want them to be. In other words, if any problem were
    to occur, there is a higher probability that a poor person can go through it without having to b
    depressed than a rich person due to the support the poor person has.
    There are a lot of people who dream of what they would do if they could have more money.
    They imagine how much happier and how easy life would be. But that is not true. Really, it is
    harder being rich. At least when you are poor you know who your real friends are.
    A rich person can buy many things that can make them happy but that can only last for so long.
    They will get bored and need new things. They might be a lot lonelier because they can't trust
    people in their lives who might be friends only for their money. A poor person can find
    happiness with little things and it makes them cherish the things they have more. The statement
    “money can buy everything” also must be wrong, because money cannot buy love for their
    children. Children also must have friends to accompany at the childhood. All children must have
    freedom and love from their parents and friends to be happy.
