Please let me Vent!!!!!
my DH mom dad and grandparents moved to Florida. They were missing the Children Grand Children and Great Grand Children SO Grandma and Grandpa said if You move to Florida we will buy you a house (this was said to DH sister she is married and has 4 kids) SO she moves to Florida they buy her a 349,000.00 house OUTRIGHT no mortgage payments (she took a mortgage out HERSELF to buy a Range Rover a Suburban and a new boat!)
Then my DH brother through temper Tantrum because she got a house So they bought him a 210,000 house!
Well when it was our turn NOTHING LEFT! Whatever. My DH birthday was the begining of June his grand parents didn't EVEN call forget about sending a CARD!
His sister calls last night and says "Florida is just to expensive to live I think Im moving to N. Carolina" "I can't afford to pay my taxes here"
She emailed me a house in N. Carolina for like 220,000.00 So basically you are gonna make 200,000 off the house in Florida.
Im definetly BITTER and I have no problem admiting it!

Re: Please let me Vent!!!!!
I honestly think I would feel the same way. My parents were very big on the idea that if you do for one child, you do the same for all. So I can completely understand where you're coming from!

Mine too- even my brother got the same amount for his wedding even though his wife's dad paid for it. I can't see families treating their kids differently- its sooo mean!

Re: Please let me Vent!!!!!
And quite nervy of the sister to e-mail you about the house in NC. I would let it be known to her that you have absolutely no time to spend on her real estate issues. Tell her you are quite busy, thank you very much.

Re: Please let me Vent!!!!!
WOW that is really messed up. Honestly its their money so they can do what they want with it but I really don't agree with how they handled. Basically they spent their life savings moving your SIL to Florida to be near her and her kids and she is going to pick up and move - leaving their bank account empty and they STILL don't get to see their grandchildren
I would be LIVID and my husband would be as well! Thats BULL!

Re: Please let me Vent!!!!!
I personally don't think people should take handouts from relatives unless the relatives are extremely weathy. We have one relative who is unemployed and basically coasts along having other people taking care of him. I'm not jealous of him; I just think it's pathetic, and that's how I would feel about your SIL and BIL. To whine until your grandparents buy you a house? Maybe they did it knowing you and your DH are competant and able to take care of yourselves, while the other siblings are unable or incompetant. Sometimes the people need more attention and money than others, but more than anything it just makes me feel bad for them. And you both should feel proud of having bought a house yourself, with no help. That is a tremendous accomplishment.

i don't believe juney's 'whining' until the grandparents cave in and buy them a house too....I think she's more venting about:
1. you do for one child, you should give equally to the others
2. the oh so grateful SIL is now looking to make a PROFIT off the house that was GIVEN to her....
THAT to me is pathetic!!
