It may be surprising, but children care less about the extras than adults do. They may outwardly complain about not having things other children have, but when they are grown, their predominant memories are not going to be shaped by that. They are likely going to be more emotionally distressed at remembering how their parents never spent enough time with them, because they were too busy at work making the money to buy all the expensive accomodations. Kids are resilient, and have a great imagination. Much of the busy work we subject them to only suppresses the imagination.

As my uncle used to say, everyone he knew grew up poor, but they didn't even know they were poor until they grew up.
