[quote=Anonymous][quote]Glasses they need. Particular glasses that are fashionable or expensive, they don't. They don't need that particular choice. Same with phone. Same with a winter coat. There were 2 times a year, Birthday and Christmas, when an upgrade to what they really prefer can go on A Wish List, as a gift. Oh, that’s a good way of doing it. I’m stealing that[/quote] 1st pp again. Fast forward to college. Again a coat. DS left for college provided w/a very nice costly winter coat of his choosing. He lost it. On our next drive to see him, I couldn't bare the thought of all of us touring his snowy, cold campus and him not wearing a coat. I stopped on the way and bought a coat for him at a Salvation Army. That's what felt right. I wasn't done providing but now a college student, it was going to be at a minimum. Some years have now passed and good news to all, he has managed to keep a coat.[/quote]
