[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 605622, member: 1550"] I actually agree with RE. Let your brother, your mom, your dad, your kissing cousin, your friend or the Man in the Moon pay for difficult children expenses. You're off t he hook and you are lodging your moral views that it's wrong for an adult child to have all of her expenses paid for her. You can't stop what THEY do, but you don't have to do it. You really don't owe her a penny. She hasn't been very good to you. And ditto for your parents. If necessary, detach from all of them. For some reason, it seems that your parents and brother think of you, who are really trying hard to do the right thing, as the family blacksheep. As one blacksheep to another :) it isn't worth trying to explain anything to them. They will just disregard what you say. It is fitting that they pay her bills. I'm sorry because I know that, no matter how hard we try, inside in hurts. But...after a while and with practice, it does get better :) [/QUOTE]
