If your parents are like mine they never gave for the deduction, they give because it's the right thing to do. The deduction was just a nice added benefit... which brings me back to REAL tax reform..IMO the deduction for charitable donations should have never existed. Somehow our tax system became a way to encourage a certain behavior rather than simply being a way to generate revenue.
