[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I think you should gift her the $4k, but I would let your husband know where you stand on any future assistance after this point. I would have a serious problem with a spouse that stood in my way to gifting this to my own mother - do it for your husband not your MIL.[/quote] But why should anyone believe you and your mother wouldn't come back for more? Giving anything at all sets a bad precedent and opens the door to repeated requests. Her financial situation is awful, she makes bad decisions and can't afford her lifestyle, why would anyone believe $4K is the end?[/quote] You are different ground with your spouse when you can point out that he agreed to a one time gift in the past than you are never helping in the first place. I don’t agree that this sounds like an out of control spending MIL either.[/quote]
