| Dec 14, 2013 at 0:47 | comment | added | Snowy Coder Girl | I thought 下さる was used for giving down. | |
| Dec 14, 2013 at 0:33 | comment | added | rurouniwallace | くれる isn't only used when someone gives something to you. It's more of a "giving down". Someone of higher "status" gives to someone of lower "status", or alternatively, someone close to the speaker is being given something. My first thought when reading this (and I could be wrong) is that Ted-san's son is close to the speaker. | |
