[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH's parents gift cash and other resources to DH's siblings but not to him. The biggest string is remaining tethered to the family's hometown. The siblings all live locally while DH moved away decades ago. Siblings occasionally complain about parents being overbearing or interfering in their personal lives. They don't seem to notice or acknowledge that having their lives underwritten comes with a price. [/quote] Same here. My own parents are not wealthy so cannot gift. My in-laws have money and they gift to DH’s siblings or their kids for things like college tuition, vacations, orthodontia, summer camps, child care, etc. These siblings are not well-off. We, on the other hand, are very well-off and they see us as not needing anything. It’s true, we have abundant financial wealth, but would have appreciated some closeness. Everyone lives close to each other, and the siblings and in-laws hang out together, but we are not included.[/quote]
