[quote=Anonymous]Op, I completely understand where you are coming from. Even down to the point of refusing the check at the end.

My father and stepmother (who handles all the money) did the same to us when we took a trip to Hawaii. She said she would pay for luau tickets. Then she said she wanted premium tickets instead. She said she would pay for golf fees, dinners, etc. We never expected them to pay for our share as we had our own money, but after she said she would pay, well, we expected it at that point. At the end of the week she wrote us a check for $700 which wasn't even close to the full amount. We were pretty upset. I didn't have the heart to say anything (because I knew she would cut us off from my dad) but now I had learned our lesson and never again. From this point on, if they want something, I will email the website with the phone number.

Sorry you went through everything you have. It sounds like you had a rough childhood with his games. No wonder you are upset. I would be too. [/quote]
