College fund or car?
Our relationships with our parents are full of memories, associations, and nostalgia. Things that remind us of spending time with them are important enough when they’re alive, but after they’ve gone it’s even more important that we keep remembering.
I am totally in agreement with the decision that this narrator made, even though his large sum of money was supposed to be for his daughter’s college fund. 18 years seems plenty to save up, and now he can keep the link between his dad and his daughter.
