[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does he actually need help with? His monthly income is too high to qualify for other help, doesn’t seem like he should be struggling. You brought three children into the world, your obligation is to the humans you’ve created, not someone else’s poor financial decisions. So yes, when he asks for money you say you have 3 kids and can’t afford to help him. [/quote] So the issue is that he is just over the threshold for medicaid so it’s not like he is bringing in a high income with his SS. And medicare doesn’t cover everything so for example there are medications he needs that aren’t completely covered and he sometimes needs to pay a significant amount out of pocket. Basically any unexpected expense is a problem. [/quote]
