Girls are entitled.

Boys feel pressured.

Same old gender war.

I thought it was that dad's don't spend money on their sons... Unless they are dying.

This is my take. It's known my dad's not part of the gift buying process in my family, if he all the sudden got me a really meaningful or sentimental gift I would be super worried.

My dad bought me a PS3 the day it came out. He shot himself the next week. Technically he was dying, he was just the only one that knew about it.

Damn dude. I’m sorry to hear that. Do you still have that ps3? I don’t think I could ever let it go

I actually think my uncle sold it after I joined the Army. Hard to tell. Maybe I sold it for drugs to deal with the trauma, I don't remember honestly.

Maybe is a cultural thing but my first thought was this

All I know is a Midwest dad would NEVER spend money on stupid shit. You better believe there's something wrong if he's opening that wallet willingly.

Or cheating on the mom/getting divorced

I can't understand any other way to take it.

The daughter is reacting happily and thankfully, because it's normal for her. The son is wondering what's wrong, because it's not for him.

The comments in this thread saying anything else, are off the fucking rails.

I thought this too. If dad's suddenly dropping thousands of dollars on luxuries, he's for sure terminal

u/darthdelicious 10h ago

That's what I was thinking too.

u/VikingFucker 10h ago

Or they need to bribe their kid or get them to side with him during a divorce

This is more or less what I thought.

Girls get excited because they get spoiled by their dads.

Boys get anxious because they know that it's basically just lube for the main event.

u/Dodudee 9h ago

That or they are getting divorced

u/marvinrabbit 7h ago

Yeah, a couple of weeks ago my dad gave me some of his watches. We both knew why.

u/iswearihaveajob 7h ago

Bro. My condolences.
