[quote=Anonymous]My parents do not give me money, ever. They live comfortably and I am not sure if there will be an inheritance and that is ok. My inlaws have (had) a ton of money, but it always came with strings attached and made them feel like they could run our lives over a $100 birthday check. I told my DH to refuse offers and not ask for money, it was not worth it and I did not to be controlled by anyone. There is a power that comes with money Op. You can either ask your mom on the spot when she offers - which means some pre planning on your part before you mention it or you can leave it alone. Are you an only child? DHs sibling is money hungry and has systematically take over his parents finances and controls them and their estate while shutting everyone else in the family out. I doubt there will be any inheritance but no amount of money is worth being beholden to someone else. If it is gifted, be thankful - otherwise find other ways to fund your life and your kids life.
