[quote=Anonymous]I told my Father I would be grateful and so appreciative to receive his financial gift *after* we closed on a house. And that's what we did, without really any explanation. My Father was a very forceful personality. So these reasons I did not speak to him: I wanted us to do it on our own. I wanted the decision to be ours alone, without judgement or influence. What we did with the gift is we put it into an account for house upkeep or emergencies. Not so noble since we had it to fall back on and we knew that all along but someone it allowed all of us to save face to the degree that mattered to each of us. Btw, after we had moved in, he visited. He was seeing the area we had chosen for the first time. He liked it. He liked the house too.[/quote]
