I'll be honest, I don't understand but it's not up to me to judge.
Do you live in the south? I have some relatives in Kentucky and I shake my head every time I go down there because you are not the first couple that I have seen like this. It's almost as if you are 50+ and well off, then the parents are more than happy to shove off their 20 year old daughter to ya! I just don't get it! LOL
