[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sister is in the process of getting divorced. She has kids. Neither she nor her soon to be ex ever made a ton of money, mostly because they never really worked regular jobs. Still do not. But together they were able to piece-together the basics for the kids. Now that she is getting divorced, she cannot do that. She also isn’t interested in getting a job. Which I find to be totally crazy. If she worked at a job, I would be 100% open to helping her and the kids. What would you do in this circumstance? [/quote]

Has she asked you for help? Are you close? We know nothing of her side. Perhaps what you think is crazy not getting a job is her needing to care for young kids and daycare would be more expensive. I have no idea. If your parents chose to help her, it is none of your business. If she asks you for help, you have a right to say no so not sure why you are so worked up. I am close with one sibling, but not another. if the one I am closer to needed help, I would help him. He is very responsible. If my other sibling needed help, I would maybe offer to pay some medical bills directly and I might send her some boxes with groceries I know she uses. I would not give her money directly.[/quote]
