My Son Wants a $70k Car—Should I Keep My Promise? 🚗💸

I’m at my wit’s end. My wife and I promised our son we’d match whatever he saved for a car by graduation. We figured he’d save $10k tops—turns out, he’s got $35k after some wild luck with stock options. Now he’s demanding we match it, and suddenly we’re staring down the barrel of an 18-year-old with $70k to blow on a car he can’t even park at school! My wife and I are arguing nonstop—she thinks we should stick to our word, but I can’t help feeling like this is financial madness. Is it worse to break a promise or to hand over a small fortune for a car he’ll probably regret? I’m frustrated, confused, and honestly, a little scared. What would you do if you were in my shoes? 😤🤯 #FamilyFinance #ParentingConflicts #MoneyMatters #RomanticRelationships
