Dear Amy: Every year I give the children thousands of dollars. I give my oldest three times as much because she has been ill for several years, even though she refuses to see a traditional doctor.
The two youngest have children under the age of 10.Every year I give the children thousands of dollars. I give my oldest three times as much because she has been ill for several years, even though she refuses to see a traditional doctor.
She went to jail for four years. I visited her on weekends, taking away time from the other two. We had to move to another city to avoid death threats to our family, mostly to the children.Now my oldest isn’t speaking to me because I “favor her siblings.”I have had years of therapy, but my children refuse to get any.Dear Worn Out: Based on your brief description, your eldest’s fate wasn’t the result of an accident, but a terrible crime that she committed.
In my opinion, someone who refuses to even speak to you should not be rewarded with a generous check. I also believe that you should redirect some of this generosity to a victim’s fund in memory of the two people whose deaths she caused. You should also consider redirecting your giving away from them and into a trust for your grandchildren’s education.Honestly, this has always bothered me, but he says that now that pot is legal in our state, he is no longer breaking the law, but running a business.
