Guest guest Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 Yeah, I love my son of course and I like to be able to buy him things, but unfortunately I am not independently wealthy. He seems to understand that, and he knows that I do what I can. He just can’t help himself from asking though.. J Re: [ ] Fwd: FW: Cool Math Dave my 16 yr. old only calls when she wants me to " Donate to the fund " ..That's what she calls it..Everytime I dd see her she has her hand out.Well she don't understand that I can't..On the other hand I am blessed with Kristy and who seem to understand the value of a dollar..I am thankful for that..Won't you be glad when they have kids and go thrugh this??????
