Candypants, you made my point for me
If this were anywhere but America, it would be a given that the money would go to help the whole family, thereby, uh, helping the whole family. Here, we are so obsessed with our money and ourselves, that giving money away, even to a family member for a good cause, becomes reason for some sort of existensial crisis. Our American "me me me" values are so pathetic. And it's just sad that people are acting like this kid is a saint for even considering the idea.
