My mom gave my sister 100k for a down payment on a house. She promised me the same but I felt it was presumptuous to remind her of her promise when I was house-hunting. She didn't volunteer the offer. She also gave each grandkid 20k for college when I was pregnant and promised the same when my son was actually born. 3 yrs later, I still haven't seen that. It is what it is. I still took care of her when she got cancer for the 3rd time. Family is family and it's not always fair. You're doing just fine, OP, w/o the help.

[b]Wow, why didn't your sister take care of her? You sound like a doormat.[/quote][/b]
Your sister should be on your mom about that stuff. Like hey Barbie did not get any money for a down payment like you gave us...why? Are you going to give her money. It not really fair to give one kid money and not the other etc, etc.[/quote]

I worry about me, not what others should/shouldn't do. I took care of my mom bc financial gifts and/or slights don't change the way I treat family. I'm sorry that you consider me a doormat for caring for my sick mother just bc she didn't give me money. That says more about you than me. [/quote]
