Can generous aunt crash college send-off?
CAROLYN HAX
tellme@washpost.com
Hi, Carolyn:
When my ex-husband
and I divorced about
eight years ago, he left
town and I got full cus
tody of our daughter,
“Jane,” and remained
great friends with his
family (from whom he
is estranged). His sister
especially helped out
with a lot of the logistics of raising a
child, like afterschool coverage, and
she has also come to school plays and
activities with me. In addition, she
is wealthy and has been amazingly
generous to Jane over the years, buy
ing clothes, taking her on wonderful
trips, etc.
I never asked Aunt for these things,
and have been able to support Jane
OK, just not as well as Aunt can. Aunt
offers gifts directly to Jane or just out
right gives in a generous if overbear
ing way. Jane loves her Aunt, and not
just for the stuff. That’s all great.
Now Jane is headed to college and
Aunt has offered to cover any amount
we need (about half, wow!). Jane and
I are accepting this amazing gift but
now I am uncomfortable with Aunt’s
plans to come with us to school for the
big drop-off and whatever else goes
on when you leave your child at col
lege. Is it too late to draw this bound
ary now, with Aunt about to spend
thousands and thousands of dollars on
Jane’s education?
I want to have the college road
trip and drop-off just for me and my
daughter. Does Auntie get to play
because she pays? Jane
is OK either way; she is
used to her Aunt insert
ing herself.
— Jane’s Mom
What I’m seeing is
not an aunt who pays to
play, but a close relative
who practically surro-
gate-parented to play.
And if that’s too strong, then at least
invested herself and her love signifi
cantly over the years. Afterschool
coverage and going to her events and
traveling with her make Aunt a huge
part of Jane’s life.
I find myself mentally replacing
the aunt in this role with a grandpar
ent, or a partner you found post
divorce who became essentially a
pinch-parent (I like that better than
surrogate) for the past eight years,
and if I were in that person’s place I
could understand wanting to see Jane
off. Hoping to see Jane off, let’s say,
and not expecting or assuming it.
In your place and Jane’s, I could
even see wanting that grandparent or
partner along for the big launch.
Of course this argument exists
independently of your feelings, and
your feelings about wanting to make
this a just-you-two event are fair and
valid. I just don’t think it’s right to
minimize the aunt’s place by reduc
ing it to a money issue. It’s about pres
ence, and Aunt’s presence has been
steadfast.
That could be the heart of your
frustration, in fact. Aunt established
her presence not because you wanted
her company and invited her in, but
because you had various needs you
didn’t want to have and she was there
to fulfill them.
It’s ultimately your decision,
you’re the mom — but please at least
dig into your discomfort enough to
understand it and put it to rest. Aunt
didn’t just pay up, she showed up, and
deserves to be treated as such.

Friday at www.washingtonpost.com.

The late Bobby Richman was
raised in the Cleveland area, but he
fell in love with Australia on his first
visit there as a young man and lived
there for the rest of his life. He was a
highly respected player as well as one
of their most beloved personalities.
Richman was South, in today’s deal.
It is well known, at least by experts,
that a defender will usually make his
first discard from a five-card suit, if
he has one. That knowledge can help
in the play of a hand. The opening
heart lead went to East’s king and
Richman’s ace. The ace of dubs
was followed by a club to the queen
and king as West shed the four of
diamonds. East lead a heart to West’s
queen — ducking would have been
better — and West led a heart to
declarer’s jack.
Richman led a club to the 10 and
jack, as West discarded the five of
spades, and then rose with his ace
to win the spade switch. The eight
of clubs forced an uncomfortable
discard from West, who chose to part
with the king of spades. Richman
knew that West had started with
five diamonds and considered the
first discard of the diamond four.
Would West have gone out of his
way to shed the four if he had the two
available? Probably not. Richman
led a low diamond, and when West
played low, Richman inserted
dummy’s eight! A diamond back
to the queen and a heart put West
on play to give dummy the last two
tricks. Well done!
