[quote=Anonymous]Was this a vent, or are you asking for advice? I guess it's kind of late for you, but this is why we are not planning to support our adult kids in any way. Your son is obviously banking on your money when you pass away, too. Drop a hint stating that you are setting aside most of your money for long term care, and you won't have much left over in about 10 yrs. You could stop supporting your son, just bite the bullet. If they can't support themselves, I guess you could offer to take the kids only until they get back on their feet. Unfortunately, your grandkids are not your responsibility, but I understand you love them and want them taken care of. But, the way you are doing it now, your son (and DIL) are never going to be able to stand on their own two feet. They will always see you as a meal ticket.[/quote]
