[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am one of the lucky ones whose parents are "helping".  It has allowed us to buy a lovely home in a good community with great schools.  I never need to worry about college for my children, or if my DH or I lose our jobs, we will not lose our house.  Do I expect this?  No.  I am lucky that my parents have worked hard, been lucky themselves, and rather than just sitting on all their money, they are using it to help their children and grandchildren.  When they are no longer with us, my DH and I will use the money we left us to help secure our children's and our grandchildren's futures.

We are not living off my parents' money, but it does help things along.  I would never, NEVER rub it in anyone's face, spend it lavishly, or flaunt this fact.  I am sure most of our friends know my parents are helping us, and I would be sad if they were bitter about it...but I won't apologize for the gifts my parents give us, nor take them for granted.

OP, venting is good for the soul.  I hope you feel better.  But please guard against letting this eat into your life.  [/quote]

Well said.  It sounds like you are lucky indeed.[/quote]
