Dear Amy: My son and his girlfriend just announced their plans to marry this year. It is the first marriage for both of them and we couldn’t be happier.
We were very surprised, however, when they asked us what contribution we would make toward the wedding.
All they need from you is an answer: “In addition to the sum we gave you for your down payment, we’ll pay for the rehearsal dinner. We were also planning to give you a check for as a wedding gift, and if you would like it now rather than later, let us know.” Today a co-worker knew I was coming home from a weekend away and dropped off a very spicy stew. She texted me to say she had left it at my house.How do I politely thank her but get the message across that I could not eat it?
