What do you think about my proposed plans for my daughters that I meantioned in my other post?
So I'm still thinkin' that in another few days I'll send my youngest daughter a couple of movie tickets to a theater that she likes and a note that says "I'm proud of your school work" and sign it "Love, Dad". About the same time I think I'll send my oldest daughter a gift card to a restaurant so she and her boyfriend could go out to eat and a note that says "I was always proud of you for 'trying' at the things you did" and sign it "Love, Dad". She danced in front of a crowded talent show crowd, tried out for cheerleading, ran for class president in HS. That's all...nothing else...no requests at all and no expectations. Just me giving to them. I do not want to be seen as expecting their thanks or gratitude.
Do you folks have any feedback regarding this?
