It's a parent's duty to raise, feed, clothe and educate the child that THEY decided to have until age 18. If you can't afford a kid, then think it over several times before deciding to give birth. If you want your child to pay you back for raising them, then you shouldn't have any kids.

[@NickJaime]

I'm upset that this son paid his mother back for raising him. It wasn't the son who chose to be born nor was it his fault that raising a child cost so much. Parents who make their kids pay them back deserve to be put in their place.

[@patricialessard8651]

Definitely! Children are not responsible for their being born and raised by their parents! Such greed is unbelievable! Helping your parents should be looked upon as a good thing if it's kept as a gift now and then. Or if a problem rises up. No way should it looked at as an obligation. It's just strait up greed!

[@freespirit3891]

​@@patricialessard8651 that's the problem, from a young age, mother's "guilt" their children into thinking it is their obligation (and father's don't realize it) to hand over their 'paycheck' to her. It's not until later in life like this son they realize it. Why should they have to budget their life according to her if SHE can't do it herself?

According to my former lawyer, children are not responsible for their parents debt. This is was corroborated when my mother died. She had several medical bills including those for her last days. We were not required to pay these bills. A few creditors tried to make us believe that we were. However when I pushed back they were forced to acknowledge that I was right. A child could voluntarily pay the debts if the estate cannot pay them but they are not required to pay.

MIL says: "You're not family. You have no right to be involved in parent-child discussions." Let's go with your logic. DIL is her family's sole source of income.

Until I started listening to these stories, I never heard of parents getting a monthly allowance from their kids. Is it a cultural thing?

No child should pay their parents back for raising their kids ,but your husband could look up mental health support groups as a safety net for both of you and see a mental health specialist every few months . It works out if your husband finds a support group that welcome family members as well and it helps them as well and you meet new people who are in the same situation as yourselves .

MIL is the one who is stressing Kevin. She is not the center of his world the way she thinks she should be. My mother was like that about phone calls. She lives 500 miles away. She would call, and because she is toxic, I rarely would like to talk to her. If I didn't respond back within a time she thought was reasonable, she threatened to call my local police. I went no contact with her in June. One of her flying monkeys contacted me and told me she went to the administrator of the home for help to contact my local police. The administrator didn't do anything, thank goodness. Also, this MIL is good at second guessing their spending when she should look at her own. My mother enjoyed spending my annual vacation, no matter what I wanted. It got to the point where I was so stressed that I used up my sick time, then was permitted to use my annual in place of my sick leave. I had no annual leave for time off for myself.

I know that in many cultures the parents spare no expense to educate and care for their children. To the extent that there's no money for their retirement. In return for this care the adult children pool their resources to care for their parents. The parents live with the adult child who has the room. The grown kids kick in to pay for their parents' needs. This is why the mothers tried to have several children. Linda still has the house? Well, all she has to do is rent out a room or two, at $ 500.00 a month each. There's her $1000.00 allowance.

With all this talk of budgeting, I'm surprised that Linda let her financial situation get so bad. She obviously knew that budgets existed, but acted like she had a guaranteed income for life. No matter where your income comes from, a job or in this case a family member, you need to try to put something aside for the future. You can get fired from a job. You can have that relative get mad at you and stop paying, or something could happen to that family member, and they lose their job. A child should never have to 'repay' its parents for raising them, but that is a different subject...
