I have a question about adult children and financially helping them out what my obligation is

because I hear lots of people trying to help out with weddings and education and that sort of thing.

I'm at a point in my life now where financially I can do it.

But am I obliged to do it when they've shown that they aren't financially responsible themselves?

No.

And how do I make it fair when there's five of them?

What is, who would oblige, you mean morally or spiritually obliged or culturally obliged?

I mean, who obliges you?

Well, you know, when they're at a point where they're having babies and getting married,

you don't you spend all.

I know what you're talking about I'm asking you said am I forced

obliged is a sweet way am I required is what you're saying who's my required who requires it

I guess I feel that they require it when it comes to fairness. Well, that would be called

entitlement. That would not be called. Yeah. Matter of fact, I have a new requirement. You need to

send me some money. Here's my address. Who gives a crap what someone else requires, right?

Who is it that wants it, and what do they want?

Well, I don't know if they want it as far as trying to treat them fairly.

You know, when there's five of them in one sees that I've spent money on one or the other,

trying to help them out or spending money on weddings or having babies.

And then the other ones think, well, why isn't she giving me money or why isn't she buying me gifts?
