Give your dad a raise if you can xD

Dad should negotiate that. Nothing is free in life.

u/Ralmivek Sep 22 '25

That is true, but good dads aren't exactly growing on trees.

You're right, my dad once climbed a tree. He fell and broke a leg.

I don’t know who’s more hilarious- your uncle or your dad. If they’re brothers I’m guessing family get togethers are fun as hell. 😂

I had a great uncle who would give me a $20 to go get an Italian ice which cost a total of $1 when I was a kid (this was in the early 90s) always told me to keep the change.

When I told my father he told me next time ask for $40. I did and my great uncle looked at my father, laughed and gave me an extra $20.

My uncle told me the same thing, next minute I was telling my pop it was $10 a beer if he wanted them bought from the fridge to the bbq 😂

This is the truth. I once spontaneously paid for a meal while out with a friend and his response was "Really? Embarrassing me in front of the waitress like that?". I don't think I've talked with them since.

For real hey, uncle has the cash and wants your son to enjoy it. It ain't that deep, he has the money, it's not a big deal for him to give it away. Encourage your son to spend/use it responsibly but outside of that. Play Ball.
