Rick Gordon, the sole son in a family of seven siblings, felt let down when his expectation of a hefty wedding gift from his mother wasn’t met. Raised in a pampered environment by six sisters, Rick’s upcoming marriage stirred mixed emotions. His mother, Carmen, recognized his immaturity and hoped marriage would mature him. As wedding plans progressed, Rick, comparing expenses with his sisters’ weddings, confronted his mother about the perceived financial inequality.
In a conversation, Rick hinted at the cost of wedding dresses, aiming for an $8,300 check like his sisters received. Carmen, surprised, reminded him of his rented tuxedo. Rick argued he deserved the money as her child. The argument escalated as Rick demanded fairness, while Carmen questioned his entitlement.
