[QUOTE="Masta, post: 86324, member: 308"] Thank you parents, for your advice. I think I can forget the sentimental stuff and will go for the gift card thing for groceries/clothes or buy something for the baby. They will probably give the gift cards over to the in-laws to use for gas or something but ohh well. As for both of their birthdays which are coming up here real soon... I will get my difficult child a giftcard or take her shopping at Wal-Mart for some maternity clothes and for her hubby he will get a gift card to Wal-Mart to buy some clothes for himself. I will take difficult child out to lunch. Hopefully by then her deadbeat hubby will have gotten himself a job. My daughter has mentioned pawning my jewelry if I were to pass on (she knows she inherits it in my will, which I will be changing)... so anything expensive will end up there for sure. The situation they live in is pretty bad... I have never been to such a dilapidated house in my life; their furniture is in worse condition than what you would find at a thrift/2nd hand store. The house itself is way to small and filthy. Currently I am storing all of my difficult child's wedding gifts here which is kind of scary. My husband thinks they might try and break in one day to get to some stuff and use an excuse for break and entering. I swear if you didnt know better their house was a drug home with people coming and going. These people waste their money on outings but never have any money for food; they beg their church and go to food banks to eat. Currently the unborn baby is underweight because difficult child isnt able to eat correctly. She lives off ramen noodles. My difficult childs mother-in-law is in control of both difficult child and her sons life. She manipulates them to believe what she believes, I dont want to buy anything nice, coz it will either be returned or broken in that home. [/QUOTE]
