[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just realized you don’t mention a husband or kids. How old are you?

I think you can only send them what you can. Your sisters need to step up.[/quote]

Op here. I have an American husband, which is why I have been able to send over as much of my paycheck as I have been. My parents are too embarrassed to get my husband involved and I don’t feel bailing out my parents is his responsibility. Needless to say, he isn’t really rich so 60k is a lot of his hard earned money. [/quote]

So does he have 60k? How much does he earn?

Do you have kids?

I hope he is supportive and doesn’t resent you or your family for this situation.[/quote]

Yes he does. We do not have children yet. He is supportive but he’s American so I think he doesn’t quite understand their predicament and desperation. I’ve also not told him the specifics as he wouldn’t really get it as an American. I’m also so embarrassed my family is so poor :([/quote]

Is it actually the poverty, or is it the bad decisions, that embarrasses you?[/quote]

Both? [/quote]
