[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's fine to give gifts with strings attached. I had a kitchen that was truly impossible to cook in and we were very slowly saving for a remodel. My mother gave me some money on the condition that it would be for the new kitchen because she knew how miserable that kitchen made me and how much I love cooking. If we had turned around and spent it on a motorcycle for my husband would that have been fair?[/quote] Nope. However, that is a gift that "really does not have strings attached". She gave it for a kitchen, which you desperately needed. She didn't tell you exactly how to remodel---that would be "strings attached" However, yes, if you spend it on a motorcycle, then you are wrong. [/quote]
