I gave my sister $5,000 to get divorced and end her pregnancy. Am I the Jerk?

I, 32-year-old male, have two older brothers, male 38 and male 40, and a sister, female 34. Note the age differences. Our dad passed away

five years ago in our hometown, a more suburban town in Wisconsin. Our family was relatively modest

when my brothers grew up, so they were cared for by a lot of my parents' families who were very

I, of course, love this. Early in 2021, my mom told me she was pregnant. I immediately asked

my sister about this, and she kind of broke down. In short, the husband has been abusive.

She's broke, and my family and her in-laws haven't helped. My oldest brother wailed at her
