[quote=Anonymous]I provided cash to my parents for their last ten years or so. Not necessarily a ton, but I would give checks to my dad when I was visiting. My mom would have said no, yet she never really recognized the change in their bank account balance. They worked hard their whole lives, but you can't squeeze more out of lowish paying jobs. My ILs are on the path where they may seek support and it does rankle me a bit. They had a generous amount of money, but they've blown through it on expensive vacations, winter house rentals, dining out, cloths shopping, etc. OTOH, DH was always generous with my parents and told me never to worry when I was worrying about their finances, so I don't think I can say no even if it didn't need to come to this.[/quote]
