Ruth finds herself in a sensitive situation where her son has redirected his financial assistance towards his mother-in-law. She believes she deserves her son\u2019s support more and has reached out to us seeking guidance. Here is Ruth\u2019s letter:I\u2019m a widow and no longer in shape to work. Each month, my son gives me a sum from his own earnings to help me with rent. Yesterday, my daughter-in-law called saying that he won\u2019t be able to help anymore. Devastated, I asked why, and she declared,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><strong>\u201cMy mom has been in bad shape lately, and we need that money to send her to a health spa and also have her do some physiotherapy sessions.\u201d She added, \u201cI think it\u2019s time for my mom to benefit from us too. She needs this money more than you do now. After all, my husband\u2019s money is also my money.\u201d Hearing those words, I was furious. My DIL is a stay-at-home housewife. She raises my grandkids and has never worked. This money is my son\u2019s money, and I am more entitled to it than her own mother. I do not care if her mom needs to improve her health and get in better shape. What should I do? Sincerely,Ruth Thank you for sharing your story with us, Ruth!
