[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here - forgot to say that DB and SIL can afford to give equally expensive gifts to her mom. One issue is that they always claim to be cash strapped, they are saving up for a house or something or another. But it’s ultimately about their priorities.[/quote] It could easily be that your brother made up equity as an excuse for the fact that he and his wife simply don’t agree any longer with this gift giving dynamic - and are making a shift in how they proceed with gift giving going forward. You and your parents may think you know their rationale, but you don’t really. Either way, this isn’t something for you to discuss with him. He is an adult and gets to decide for himself what to do with regards to his own parents.[/quote]
