[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I had a chance to talk to my brother at more length. Seems like they do have separate accounts - he pays for childcare and she pays the rent. Apparently she usually pays for her family's tickets, but for this last vacation I know he pitched in really well. I asked him if it felt like he was always short of money- he said no, not really. I told him again I was sorry I couldn't pay for the tickets or agree to use miles for these particular dates; I told him we would be happy to fly in for Christmas (surprisingly the tickets are not much more expensive if we flew on the 24th). I get a feeling that he just doesn't want to spend that money, up to the point of missing that conference. It does hurt a little as I thought that the prospect of seeing family would sweeten the deal for him, but it's ok. He says he still wants me to come and he wants to pay for tickets, but I don't know yet. It's just all getting a bit ugly.[/quote]
