We have opposite problem tish. I have never been asked about money by my family, BUT I have guilt feeling towards my brother who helped me in my college years. He's in Saudi for 25 years and he's got heart desease. I offered help to him many times but never accepted my offer. He said he can still work. That made my heart broken, that makes me feel cry
He has already 7 door apartment, 2 houses, 1 vacant lot, eldest is Registered nurse already but his wife asking for more
. I really feel worry for him, I do call him oftentimes begging to go home but to no avail
. I told him to buy a jeepney and willing to send him some of my savings for his additional needs.
I do send money to my Mom and if I have no job, it is my husband who send to my Mom, that is his promise to my Mom before.
Anyway we must not give fish but must help them to catch fish if needed as we have our own priorities in life.
God Bless!
