    I have 2 older brothers. Both live with my dad. They are 35 and 39. No retirement, savings, career, car, or aspirations. I used to try and help. But they walk all over me. I stopped stressing about how bad there situation was, best thing I ever did.

He is selling you something first and foremost. Common sense will tell you not live beyond your means and not get into debt. Do you really need to pay someone to tell you that?

He’s not saying anything special or thought proving, stop acting like he’s a genius. If you really need to pay someone to tell you what you already know, buy his book.

    We are dealing with this too....only FIL is still alive and living in house enabling it too...ignoring his wife while his son dotes and shows affection, sometimes borderline not ok, and he just watches...doesn’t stand up to anyone but my hubby, his oldest, whine he tries to address the monumental elephant in the room...while we endure hearing unwarranted or needed advice for our “overbearing” parenting skills. I constantly was being treated like a teenage mom and hubby the same by his family.....but NO MORE! Boundaries the book helped me know how to approach this and deal with it appropriately regardless of their poor reaction....I’m not perfect at it but it has helped me feel better.
    And I have stepped back and stopped fostering a relationship with my MIL who lives in some Layla enabler land and sadly never cut the cord with her own mother and isn’t over her death....Hubby’s also had it and doesn’t let any of them baby him....at 37 and 34 yrs old....we are tired of being told we are “babies”....nope...grown people with 3 living kids and 1 more on the way....getting out of debt (unlike them and the mock us), enjoying real life and not this fantasy world of magic childhood...letting our kids grow and learn an become useful people with more and more understanding and responsibilities...that is a great childhood....one you know you were prepared the whole time for the future AND had reasonable fun in the process.

    Its a wonderful advice given to the lady Dave! Hope I had heard or watched your shows (if it was started, i guess it was) 20 years back as i was in the same position as that of the 'mom', emotionally attached and can you believe that siblings older to me did the same thing the brother is doing. To worsen it more I was financing the kids of the siblings also. After being so extraordinarily supportive, i was cheated on a property by these fantastic siblings of mine. But i ain't learnt the lesson yet as i was stupidly being emotionally attached. After watching your shows and understanding the word 'no' along with the term 'boundaries' that you keep explaining in lot of the shows, i have courageously started to say 'no' to the gimmicks portrayed by them to ask help from me. Oh God!, if you are fooled, its your fault and not the person who has fooled you as you are the 'dumb' factor and you have to rectify your blunders and identify between help (which is rightfully demanded by some people)....and being a target to taken advantage of your kindness...!

    Sounds a lot like my mum's cousin who lives in CA. Smart, hard working woman whose son's idleness meant she ended up working until she was in her late 70s. My male cousin has failed to manage money properly all his life too, and although he worked full time before near-death illness meant he couldn't, he was always getting handouts. I confess I've also asked for financial help at times when hit with a big bill, say a car repair: I acknowledge it was a lifestyle fault (i.e. I was with a man whose money burned a hole in his pocket, resulting in me having none). Since I ended that relationship I'm back on an even keel. My ex will always live that way and it's not something I can suffer.

    What's the other side of the story? When I was young and still trusted people in my family my sister and her husband invited me to come and live with them and they offered to "help me with school". I thought it was a nice offer but it turned out that they treated me as if I were an uninvited moocher trying to take advantage of them. It was like someone opening a door for you and then slamming it on you half way through and claiming to be your victim somehow. Sometimes so called deadbeats are people who have been told a bunch of lies and tripped up because of family power dynamics. And then again sometimes deadbeats are deadbeats.

    I would *maybe* help out the mother-in-law who will eventually have to stop working.. I wouldn't help her too much, but just enough for her to survive when she stops working if her pension is not enough to make ends meet, and only if I had all my debts paid off (except for mortgage), had a 6+ month emergency fund, and was saving for retirement, education for kid, and was on track to have the mortgage paid off before retirements.. and had some money to actually help someone out.. I would help out the mil, as part of charity/giving because she is an old lady now.. that being said... not a single dime to that useless son of hers. Although he is useless because she raised him this way and enabled his fecklessness, he is an adult now and has to either learn how to adult or not.. either way, I wouldn't help him financially because that would only enable this further... (IF he actually had a shift of character and showed the initiative and willingness to change and improve), I would maybe help him with some advice, otherwise, I wouldn't even waste my time.
