[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is our oldest nephew and I'm a SAHM, so I've never been through this before. Nephew is graduating from college. [b]Sister and BIL are middle class.[/b] I'm a bit uncomfortable with my husband putting his neck out for an in-law who honestly doesn't seem deserving of a backdoor to a lucrative job. Or is this just how the world works and I should encourage my husband to help? [b]My husband has helped a couple of close friends' kids[/b], but they all had pretty impressive CVs, so I don't think they really even needed the lift.[/quote] Sounds like the kid is getting ideas of rising above his station. Favors are reserved for similarly situated kids not middle class relatives. [/quote] One correction - in OP's world, "Favors are reserved for similarly situated kids [b]whose families may be in a position to return the favor some day, [/b]not middle class relatives." It's all transactional. [/quote]
