[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Years ago I made the grave mistake of accepting a monetary gift from my parents for the purchase of a condo. In recent years, they have taken to bringing up their generosity when I won't do their bidding, or, in anger declaring that I would have nothing without them. How would you nip this in the bud and remind them they gave me things as gifts. Using your previous generosity and willingness to help out your child as a weapon is just gross. To this day they continue offering to cover the costs of things especially for DC but DH and I know better now. They can be very difficult to deal with and I often think they try to use money as a way to get us to take their crap. [/quote] Pay them back, slacker. I borrowed $20K from my parents and gave them back when I sold my first home. It's not rocket science. [/quote]
