[quote=Anonymous]OP, you are right. This man has no right to ask for a dime from your family. I’m so sorry that this has come up. I just feel such compassion for your husband though, and understand why he wants to give his dad the money. The parent-child bond is complicated and not logical. Maybe let him give the guy the money this time with the explanation that no more will be forthcoming. Then DH gets into therapy stat to deal with these complicated feelings and to learn to set boundaries. No matter what you guys say or do now, he’s going to keep asking you for money. To be clear, you guys don’t owe the dad anything at all, but your husband’s piece of mind is worth something.[/quote]
