[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But "ability" is sometimes determined by our choices. The SN child was not a choice, but what about moving away?[/quote] So we all should live our lives within an x mile radius of mom and/or dad so that, if parent ever needs support - despite having other local kids - we can contribute our fair share? That just doesn't seem very realistic. And OP *is* in fact contributing by doing money, even if she can't be there herself. Her siblings just want to indulge in feeling sorry for themselves. OP, next time there's a large expense you could pay for, ask your siblings if they would prefer that you write a check - or if they would prefer that you come to town for a week to help with everything else, and the expense can be split by thirds. I bet they want the cash (or the vendor paid directly).[/quote]
