He's an unusual child, and he wants to give his money to his older brother. Should I let him?
  • sweet letter, too bad it's bullshit

    I mean, please . . . "my son overheard me speaking to a private scholarship company . . ." This mother is clearly looking for any excuse to get at her younger son's money. Which, by the way, if she plans to use it to support her older son in college, I have no problem with. I mean, if, as she says, she's scaled back her own career to support her younger son's career, surely she's entitled to some sort of salary. Besides, it's only money we're talking about. Big deal if the kid spends it on his older brother. This letter is bunk. It's really sad that people are so desperate for a little kindness that someone spending money ON A SIBLING is cause for teary eyes.
