[quote=Anonymous]I know a situation where the Adult Child (AC) comes from a well-educated UMC family, attended university and is now in a high-income profession. Family money is significant and AC was been able to purchase large single family home and a vacation home with family money.

Enter the SO. SO comes from an extremely dysfunctional "family" where both parents abused drugs and father has a long list of felony convictions including domestic violence, battery and forgery. SO never finished high school, has no interest in a GED and works in retail. SO's political views and interests are polar opposite to what AC's used to be.

Of course these were huge red flags when AC introduced SO to family members. We held our tongues. AC and SO are now married and still together years later. By all appearances are quite blissfully happy. AC picks up the tab for everything and SO enjoys spending it.

The felon FIL is fully  integrated into their family life and AC financially supported his bail and his attorney during his ongoing law breaking events.

Seems to work for them.
