As a mother and grandmother, Terry Parsons thinks about money a lot.
Not just in the 'Will I have enough money for retirement?' kind of way, but also in the 'Something feels out of balance' sensation that you feel in your stomach from time to time.
On a personal level, Terry, like millions of other parents and grandparents, worries about the impact our hyper-consumer society is having on her grandchildren. On a big-picture level, Terry thinks deeply about the social, economic and spiritual implications of a culture that is working overtime to addict millions of young people in the United States to spending. Not exactly the everyday concern of the average grandparent."
