We were in a similar situation many years ago.
Dad upgraded his car and we bought the 'old'one for £1000.
We handed over monthly instalments and were delighted when dad wrote off the last £200.
Bearing that in mind I've done the same for my own DCs.
However, when my daughter got married and her cash was vanishing fast, she asked if I'd put the wedding rings on my credit card for her to repay. 2 years on she seems to have forgotten the last £200.
In other circumstances I'd write it off but at the time I made it very clear that this was a special purchase and I felt it really had to be their responsibility.
(Her father and I footed pretty well all the other bills).
Time to remind her or forget it?
