Much shorter answer than me - I like it.  I hate when I get carried away with getting too wordy.

Not income for them, not a deduction for parent.

There are seven ways of receiving money, and not all of them are taxable income.

1) Earning it.

2) Finding it.

3) Investing it.

4) Borrowing it.

5) Inheriting it.

6) Receiving a gift.

7)  Stealing it.

Guess which ones are taxable income.

Is it Earning finding investing stealing (lol) and inheriting?
