How wonderful to have a parent who is trying to teach you to think about others. He also sounds like he wants you to learn to budget. If you are fortunate enough to be earning money, thru allowence, small jobs, b'day gifts, he is wanting you to spend it wisely. Molly will come in time, you are so fortunate to have someone in your life who cares enough to say what is right for your family. Good luck with your choices, and remember you are never to old to play with dolls. [img]graemlins/rose.gif[/img]
