[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you're reasonable OP! I think there are a lot of SN moms on this board and their feelings are clouding their judgement. This SN brother has a large inheritance and another one coming to him. Surely he also get social security disability?

OP maybe you could look at larger homes that have an inlaw suite for brother in case he needs it? Maybe then your dh would use his inheritance.

I do think it's selfish he won't use his inheritance and expects you to use yours.[/quote]

He suggested she use her gift from her parents.  She is totally within her rights to say she doesn’t wish to do so and agree to live on their joint income.  But this idea that she wants a larger/better house, can’t pay for it with just their joint income, has gifts from her parents to pay for it if she really wants to, and is mad because her DH won’t contribute his inheritance that he is saving to deal with a disabled brother is just so awful.  If you look for “equal” in any relationship (especially marriage) rather than “fair”, you will not have a ton of quality relationships.  And then to comment on her brother’s marriage and have her interest in protecting her family money from the gold-digger as a reason why her husband should not plan for his sibling is just the cherry on the top.  Note to self - raise self sufficient children and not parasites who look at gifts as entitlements. [/quote]
