[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The more you tell us, the more I realize that it's a very unpleasant family. I bet Thelma was a right bitch and witch. You may see it differently but based on what we've been told, there was a mother who regularly quarrelled with her daughter and went to the extreme step of not leaving a valuable home to her (regardless of the situation, the house was Mary's home too), despite that such a move would actually leave the daughter in a very precarious position, financially and even emotionally. There's a son who was kicked out of the house at 19 and who, for whatever reason, has never maintained close contact with his own mother (which strongly implies the mother was a dysfunctional bitch). The son has children of his own, yet their own grandmother literally cut them off by leaving the most valuable asset to a grandniece instead of her own kith and kin. I'm guessing there wasn't much of a relationship between the grandmother and grandchildren? Which means Roy didn't encourage it. Yet another evidence supporting the notion Thelma was bitch asshole.

Anyway, there's a lot we're being told that doesn't quite piece together neatly. You're giving out critical information in little dribbles instead of being entirely upfront. And I suspect you're still hiding a lot from us or embellishing certain details or avoiding stating the real truth that could be Thelma was a dysfunctional and bitter bitch of a mother and you, whether intentionally or not, have benefited from it.

I would suggest you stop using the term bitch to describe my godmother. I'm not leaving anything out. When godmothers husband was alive he was strict with his son but was wrapped around his daughter's finger. He was quite "traditional" in that he firmly believed that it is the mans job to work. When his son dropped out of college, he refused to allow him to slack off at home and gave him an ultimatum. Roy came out successful but never forgave them for putting him out. FYI they were willing to float him all the way through college until he got a job, they were not however going to bankroll him sitting at home and not working or going to school. My grandmother said they gave him some time to have "mental clarity" which the way she described it, sounds like a gap year to give him time to decide what he wants to do going forward. . After that he still didn't really want to go back to school or work.

My godmother did also leave things to her grandkids. Roy's kids are teen boys (15 and 19)  and she left them each $30k, presumably for school or whatever. [/quote]

OP, have Jeff delete this thread. Send Mary an eviction notice, sell the house, get your life. Good luck! [/quote]
