... my eldest went to jail for four years. I visited her on weekends, taking away time from the other two.
The two youngest have children under the age of 10.
None of my children acknowledge my gifts. The middle child will thank me if I ask if the money has shown up in the children’s accounts. 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.
