[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to pay for your own education if your parents are in trouble financially. You can maybe work out a plan with the lender, but yeah, it amazes me how many adult kids get so pissy when they are asked to pay back a parent plus loan.  Usually those loans are taken out because it's another pot of money that you would otherwise not have access to, and student loans and scholarship options have been exhausted. [/quote]

The problem here is that OP was never told about any intention for her to pay this loan. Either her parents are big jerks or more likely they never intended for OP to pay it. They mismanaged their finances, got divorced, don’t want to adjust their style, are spending beyond their means and now OPs mother is deciding…oh I want to keep a house multiple times larger than what I can afford, go shopping and travel, 
I’ll just transfer this debt over to my adult kid and grandkids. I’ll lie and say it was always the plan to save face, [/quote]
