honestly, i think it depends. i don't know why Tom Cruise wouldn't be expected to make sure his daughter is provided for in a way

that is representative of, in fact, being HIS daughter. I mean, by all logic his daughter *should* have every opportunity in the world. if she didn't, then i actually think that that could be considered bad parenting by a parent who very easily could provide such opportunities.

i know that by our standards these things are really really frivolous, but not in Suri's world. She has siblings that have had it all, there is no reason she shouldn't.

more than that, I don't know why he wouldn't *want* to. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 08:18 1
- right, good point. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 08:20
honestly, I have never ever heard of this logic before. - groiny Aug 24, 08:18 6
- if your kids weren't with your on a day to day basis, wouldn't you still want them to have as much as you could give them? -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 08:22 4
  - yes, within reason, sure. - groiny Aug 24, 08:23 2
    - The money is there. It's not going to be redistributed to hungry kids if Suri doesn't get it now. It's in her bank account or Tom's. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 08:24
    - but it's all relative. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 08:24
  - I can't type today, sorry. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 08:22
- just make sure your kids aren't used to shit all. -- nm - Reagen Aug 24, 08:19
This. He is a rich, rich man. He *should* give his daughter a chunk of that. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 08:18 11
- I am sure she will have a trust fund, or some $ put aside by him for her when she hits 18. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 08:18 10
  - She'll inherit plenty when he dies. that's not the point. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 08:20 8
    - WTF does a 6 year old need????? -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 08:24 7
      - WTF does Tom Cruise need?! -- nm - Reagen Aug 24, 08:25 5
        
        well yeah, this is also the root of my issues. - groiny Aug 24, 08:28 4
        
        He makes $20 million, but him being in a movie role earns other people a lot more than that. If he's that big a factor in richer people earning even - Roger More Aug 24, 08:40
        
        you can't change that. it's a fact that he is ridiculously rich. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 08:29 2
        
        I am aware of that. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 08:30 1
        
        Well, if he gets dinged for more than 400k a year, he'll be less rich....see? - Will Hunting Aug 24, 08:32
      - What she has had for the last few years. - Spawn Aug 24, 08:24
  - but if she's not given nice things until she's 18, when she turns 18, she'll be more easily tempted to blow her trust on crack and lamborghinis. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 08:19
