[quote=Anonymous]For DS's high school graduation, DH and I with our other kids and grandparents, all went to the ceremony. DS was much fussed over and lots of pictures were taken. Afterwards we went to a party at the home of DS's best friend, the cost of which DH and I split with BF's parents. That summer, in addition to paying the fall semester's tuition and room and board, he got a new laptop to take to college, and we spent hundreds of dollars on stuff to outfit his dorm room. Then DH and I took 2 days off from work and paid gas, food, and lodging to drive him to college, carry all his stuff into his dorm in the blazing heat, and help set up his room. Then we paid for transportation back and forth from college for fall break, Thanksgiving, Christmas, spring break. Rinse and repeat ×3. Come on, OP. Are you trying to tell me that he also needed a special token of our appreciation? I love this kid and am very proud of him. But he gets more than enough stuff from us.[/quote]
