[quote=Anonymous]^^^ Stepmother chose to join a family with existing children and established lifestyle.choices, that were already provided for via inheritance by original mom and an agreement between dad and mom. If stepmother had married this man and no first wife or originsal children ever existed, the inheritance from dead wife would not exist either. Step mom needs to budget her lifestyle as if this money never existed and plan for potential future children based off what she is able to earn going forward. Step mother is already benefiting from dead wife's earnings as she is likely living in a house paid for by dead wife's work, picked out by dead wife, furnished by dead wife... Step mom has receieved all the benefits from dead wife that she needs. The household money SHOULD indeed support original children. They were there first and are not a surprise foisted on step mom. Nor is their private school.[/quote]
