[quote=Anonymous]Similar. My surviving parent is also a multi-millionaire and gives me flack for being a working mom. I think there is a small perception of expectation depending on gender. My MIL used to really like when my DH bought her things or took care of her. It made her proud of the man he had become. I see my mom do that, too. She has bought herself things and told me she plans to tell people my brother bought it for her. Maybe that is just us, but I see it in other families, too (not the lying, but the "my son" syndrome). If you can afford it, and they would appreciate it, there isn't much reason for you not to. I can't afford that. [/quote]
