[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Father paid off my sister’s kids college loans. She makes a decent living but choose to have 3 kids. I am a divorced single Mom but a successful one...my kid did not get anything.  Guess what? I don’t really care. It’s his money and I’d rather my nieces and nephews get it than my stepmother (the OW).[/quote]

Is your kid now paying for student loans?  If so, maybe your kid cares that your dad put the others first?[/quote]

No. I paid for his college.[/quote]

If your kid had put himself through college largely with scholarships, attending a less expensive university, working retail....Would you feel a bit sad for your kid that his cousin had everything handed to them?  How do you think your kid would feel to see his grandparent pay his cousin's student loans while he worked his butt off to stay out of debt?

Now imagine that the cousin not only had their student loans paid off by a grandparent but also got kicked out of school and has nothing to show for the grandparent's investment?

That is what Op is dealing with and I feel bad for Op her kids.[/quote]
