A few months after the loss, her in-laws approached her with a request.
They wanted her to give a portion of the life insurance money to her late husbands grandparents.
Despite her reservations, the OP faced increasing pressure from her mother-in-law, who accused her of being selfish.
We followed up by asking how one can decline family requests for money without damaging relationships.
She also stressed the value of providing emotional support so you can maintain positive relationships while setting clear financialboundaries.
When we asked how to balance financial security withgenerosity, Adeoye recommended following a disciplined approach.
Many criticized the in-laws for their obvious opportunism, especially given their past lack of involvement in the family.
What would you do if you were in the OPs shoes?
Would you share the life insurance payout with your in-laws?
We would love to hear your thoughts!
