Not everyone knows what they want to do in their lives.
Even if someone tries to take it away.
Nearly allmeteorologistshave bachelors and masters degrees, but a PhD is becoming common among them too.
As you may know, in many countries studying at university costs a pretty penny.
So, the girl was planning to cover her tuition with a mix of a scholarship and her inheritance.
Aninheritancecan exist in many forms.
The funds supervision went to one of the authors moms aunts.
Now, heres where things got messy.
The OPs sister Kelsey is a fine arts major.
Instead of her final year at school, she was invited to the Junior Artist in Residence study program.
It provides an artist space and resources to support their artistic practice.
So, naturally, the family was happy that their member got such a chance.
Until the question about finances came up.
Apparently, the young woman was planning on using Mamaws money to cover her living expenses.
That meant there would be no money to pay for Kelseys final year of school.
So, the parents came up with a plan.
They would also take out aloanon the house themselves to cover the leftover expenses of their older daughter.
Basically, everything would be given to Kelsey, while the author would have to fend for herself.
Thats when the evening was ruined, as it turned into a fight.
This made the girl wonder is she a jerk for even considering this?
Well, many people online didnt think so.
The parents mismanaged themoneyand now her dream career is at risk because of it.
At the same time, others had a few more questions about the whole ordeal.
So, the 17-year-old came back with an update.
She also gave more context about her parents history with money.
Apparently, her whole childhood, they struggled with money, because they always mismanaged it.
Her grandparents used to help with their bills, and Mamaw even left them thehouse.
Thats why they werent the first people trusted with the fund.
Growing up in a family that struggles with money canaffecta person for the rest of their life.
When parents are stressed about money, children can internalize that anxiety.
So, when they grow up, they might start spending recklessly or become overly financially restricted.
Shes not the only angry family member.
Her brother, who this plan leaves penniless, is too.
Just like her grandparents and aunt and uncle.
Now, they want to move as quickly with the legal case as possible.
Meanwhile, the OP is set to go tocollege she wants her dream career.
Even if she has to take out loans to cover the costs, shell do it.
Thats where the story ends; there are no updates yet.
So, we cant be sure whether the family ended up suing the parents or not.
Perhaps they all were able to find another way to solve this.
