[QUOTE="EvenTheDogMovedOut, post: 700876, member: 20911"] Again thank you for your replies. It's the first time I've ever shared this family situation and gotten some outside objective opinions. In mention of staying away from the family except in situation of physical danger: If a stranger were financially fleecing & manipulating my elder parents, I would step in immediately. So would anybody else? So what is the line between physical abuse, emotional abuse and financial abuse? Many of you as parents have mentioned the powerful force of loving one's child to the point of personal bankruptcy, and for a long time, not seeing the magnitude of the problem. The idea that your love is fixing the child. That is what is happening in my family. There is family money involved here that is supposed to be coming to extended family members. This is not a simple, walk away and let my parents finances sink. My mom has control of this money (not liquid assets). That puts it in jeopardy for everyone. This week I have alerted extended family members of the situation. [/QUOTE]
