I don't know how much my hubby gives them, may be $ 4000 a month. I once bought 99 a present, she said, ' Don't waste my son's money.' Since then, I didn't give her money or present. Hubby does it all. She would sometimes buy me clothes. I would wear it at home when she visits and then give it to Salvation Army. One really funny thing happened last month, she came and took my girl to the bedroom and gave her two frilly underwear, styles I do not approve. My girl thought they looked ugly and kept quiet about the presents until I found them in the drawer.
