[quote=Anonymous]I’m a single mom of 2 and already stressed just about getting my kids through college and saving for my retirement and giving to charity. Paying my parents way is last on my list. I didn’t ask to be born. I got very little affirmation or support growing up and had to figure everything out on my own as the oldest child, first gen to attend college. My brothers got way more financial and other support than I did (I am female) My parents had some good earning years but saved very little and spent a lot on restaurants, renovations, and vacations. Now they are in their upper 60s, divorced, and have not much at all. I really, really don’t feel warm fuzzies towards my parents and I don’t want to financially support them. I don’t care if that makes me a bad person. [/quote]
