My parents gave us everything they could growing up and had very little for themselves. They're good and honest people.

I gave them a secondary credit card on my account and told them to spend up to 1k per month on it.

They rarely reach that level and my mom is always checking in with me to see if purchase X is ok. I have to remind her that I consider that money hers anyways, she can do what she wants with it.

They can afford to live without that money but to me it's the extra that makes their life more enjoyable. They sometimes go out to restaurants (which they pretty much never did), go see shows from time to time and have gotten themselves some new clothes also which they hadn't done more than a handful of times in the last decade.

I'm gonna pay for dental work they need and also vacations together with them.

Not answering your actual question but I hope everyone in this thread who dreams of being able to give back to their parents is able to do so one day.

This is inspiring, really. I just hope that I’ll get that far before they pass.
