[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you all the same posters in the other threads complaining about having to assist your parents emotionally or financially in their old age.  I am amazed at the number of people here saying "take the money" and the number of people in the other threads saying "my parents should attend to their own needs."[/quote]

First of all, she said her parents could afford it.  Second of all, I'm a PP and no, I am not one of those. I would help support my parents or ILs in any way I could if needed.  Generosity in family can go both ways.  So can mooching.  This does not sound like a case of mooching at all.  The OP should consider that if her parents overextend themselves she may need to help in the future.  But it sounds as though they anticipate leaving her money and want to give her some in advance of that so the entire family can get the most out of it.    Sounds smarter than her parents squirreling it away and not being alive to see their daughter enjoy it in a lovely family home.  [/quote]
