[quote=Anonymous]My father had "socialist" parents. They gifted land, money, houses to all their sons who didn't have their acts together. The sons who did (and had moved away for college asap to get out of crazy envinronment) had to work their way through college, moving, first cars, weddings, etc. Meanwhile, the delinquents never paid their way. My cousins had their med school paid for by these grandparents. When they died they gave 80% of the inheritance to the youngest son who was still living in their home at age 40, single. He went off to Portland, got his first ft job and was perfectly fine. QED: You cannot control what other people do with their time and money. You can only control what you do with your time and money. You teamed up w your husband. And did just fine, all amongst the two of you. Play the long game. I know having an LD child is rough, you've been through a lot but are tough. [/quote]
