[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a long-standing issue with my parents fully supporting my brother (40s, two masters degrees, never worked, lives in a nice place by himself).  After I recently expressed concern about my parents' (and brother's) financial plan (with underlying resentment that is never going to resolve from me), my mom hung up on me, sent me a diatribe about how I feel entitled to their money.  She then apparently spend the night googling my FIL, who has been pretty successful, and sent a late-night text to my spouse about a charitable donation my FIL made when his wife died five years ago.  The text was something along the lines of "how nice that your dad donated to xyz."   My mother takes a lot of prescription meds at night and is often pretty messed up.

[b]The only reasonable assumption here is that she is doing a deep search on my FIL to justify to herself that they have given probably close to $1m to my brother to date, with no end in sight, right?[/b]  My parents are trying to say this was just idle curiosity and had nothing to do with the conversation/fight I'd had with my mom that day.  FWIW, we receive no financial assistance from either side of the family.[/quote]

Yes, you are correct. Your parents are obviously trying to deflect, but yes, you are right.

Sorry you are going through this.[/quote]
