Description

Eric: If you pay for the children’s tuition or give the family a car, it stands to reason they’d make a point to show their gratitude by seeing you more. It doesn’t always work that way, though. Getty Images.

Dear Eric: Over the years my husband and I have given our son and daughter-in-law many gifts such as kitchen appliances, furniture, a car and other expensive items. These gifts have always been presented to both of them.
