[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's simply not your decision to make, mom.

No money is ever free. Your son knows that. YOU know that.

A shack bought with your own money, is better than a palace with loaned money.

It looks like your son grew up - good for him! Time for you to grow up more, and respect that you don't get to make decisions for your grown kids. You don't own them anymore. [/quote]

My son took a loan from us for graduate school and now won't take a loan from us for the house. What has changed? Not my son...his wife. I think she's talking him into a bad choice and it hurts my heart.[/quote]

Right because the house belongs to both of them.

I think a lot of DIL's have stupid crazy nitpicky issues with their MILs, and tend to lean towards "team MIL" - but you are so very wrong on this issue.

It's not your house.

IT'S NOT YOUR HOUSE.

Get over it.

Don't blame your daughter in law for this. They (very rightly and astutely) saw that your money was not a gift and more like leverage you would use to try and control them. My guess is they saw what happened with your other son and did not want that to happen to them.

Be proud for raising an independent and self sufficient son and MYOB.[/quote]
