[quote=Anonymous]We went though something similar with my in-laws. Both in their lower 60s and they started essentially demanding 10s of thousands of dollars because their investments went south and it was crimping their two-home lifestyle. DH is a big law associate, but his job is nowhere near secure. We have four children, including one thimat has SNs and student loans. It was insane MIL could not see that our family's paycheck was not her's for the asking. What worked for us was cutting ONE check to get them out of a terriable mess and also telling them that this was all we could do. Period. They came back six months later asking for $25,000. We told them no and it was so awkward. I still cannot believe the conversations we had to have - it was like talking to teenagers. Good luck OP. Stand your ground!!!![/quote]
