We took a vacation with his 21-year-old, and not once did she offer to pay, or even say thank you.
We get into arguments about this before vacations. I know they’re not my kids, but what he’s teaching them is that Dad will always pay for everything, even when they have families of their own. Please advise. -- MIFFED IN MINNESOTA
DEAR MIFFED: Your gentleman friend’s “children” behave this way because they have been taught to by their father, who appears to enjoy being the beneficent provider. If you’re smart, you will quit starting arguments about this because the dynamic isn’t going to change, and he will grow to resent you for it. If you persist, you may wind up ruining your relationship with a “wonderful” man.
