The reality that saving alone cannot catch up, and the reality that I still did not want to give up.

Since the age of 12,

I've been thinking more and more, "What... will it take so long?."

It is a change from a child fee to an adult fee.

Adult size clothes and shoes.

Expenses increase every time you go out.

Large size for kids

Even if you try to do something,

Sometimes I feel the limits.

I'm saving.

I'm not even wasting it.

But in reality it is not enough,

Even days when my heart can't catch up!!

But, uh,

Children "want to do"

I didn t want to give up for money reasons.

i'm not just cutting it as a choice.

I started thinking about another pillar that supports household finances.

To my mother who is suffering in the same way.

The anxiety I'm feeling now

You're not the only one 🌷
