[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of us here have parents with plenty of their own money, they don’t need assistance from their kids.  What they need is someone to abuse and manipulate.  And their financially independent kids are saying, no.  Not here for that.

I’m hoping to have a relationship with my child that isn’t transactional.  Breaking that cycle.  Ignore the lesson at your own peril if you want your kids to speak to you in your old age.  It’s truly sad that anyone thinks money buys love.  I feel very badly for them, because they’ve likely never been loved.

And all these angry ACs threatening to cut off contact? They should go right ahead. No one is stopping them.  But, to not have worked through their emotions of entitlement, abadonment and resentment when they become adults is in of itself pathetic. The world does not care for their sorry saga.  They should not waste anyone else's time because no. one. cares.  Go live your life instead of boohooing.
