Dear Abby: My Girlfriend Is Upset that I’m Spending Money to Help My Kids
- A man in California has been financially supporting his adult children after their mother recently died, leaving them a home needing repairs and zoning updates.
- He has provided substantial financial support, amounting to several tens of thousands of dollars, to cover their housing, rent, and everyday living costs because their emotional distress has prevented them from being self-sufficient.
- His longtime girlfriend has reacted angrily, accusing him of spending what should be their future retirement money and condemning his support as spoiling the children.
- She declared, "How dare I think of them and not us," reflecting ongoing resentment that has damaged their relationship and strained the household dynamics.
- Due to the emotional and financial complexity, advice suggests the man should consult his CPA and attorney to navigate this situation and protect his and his children’s interests.
