[quote=Anonymous]I think the discomfort comes from this seeming to be a “gift” when, in fact, that’s not what it is. A gift does not have conditions. But your parents and others might think that this financial help is a gift. You might be feeling ungrateful if you don’t accept this so-called gift. Others, including your parents, might judge you as being ungrateful if you don’t take it. So stop viewing it as a gift. It’s not. It’s an offer to engage in a transaction with them. [/quote]
