[quote=Anonymous]The problem with the argument that the other sibling has a mental health issue or other "legit" reason for taking parents' money is that no one has a crystal ball. What if the productive sibling gets a rare cancer, or their child does, or their spouse has a stroke and needs full time care? Will it still feel justifiable that the freeloader sibling, who may or may not have a disability, took all the money? I too have a freeloader sibling who has literally never had a job - spent 20 years travelling and exploring on my parents dime. At 42, with no career or savings, he was in a bad accident and now really cannot work - and of course he won't qualify for disability or social security. He will be necessity take all of my parents' money, but yeah, I am enormously resentful and will think of them every time a monetary challenge arises for me for the rest of my life. [/quote]
