[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my DH’s parents really needed money - even if it was due to their bad choices - I would never leave them high and dry.  I would also step up to help care for them if need be.  I’ve always been of the belief that families should take care of their elderly relatives and I consider my in-laws part of my family.  I admire cultures that have that ethos.  [/quote]

+1.

My parents aren’t retired yet, but DH spends money and limited vacation time flying out to visit them 2-3 times a year.

So if you were a SAHM and your parents needed money you would get a job to support them?[/quote]

Probably not.  I work part time and DH balks when I pick up additional work, even if I still take care of all the kid stuff.  The house is messy, dinner isn’t made, I’m tired, everything is a little stressful.  
He would not be cool with my picking up more work and then keeping all of the money for myself.  [/quote]

So if your parents were sick and needed help financially, you would be willing to get a job keep all the money and spent all your husbands money and your parents aide? Well, no wonder men hate women.[/quote]
