My sister in law is 21 years old, but severely developmentally disabled. Because her father is a Vietnam War veteran, she gets VA benefits as well as SSI beneftis and all this money is sent monthly to her mother. Her mother is remarried to a useless guy who has an 18 year old son and while my sister in law is brinigng in the majority of the family's income, she wears rags, doesn't get to do anything she enjoys doing, and the family is constantly broke. The step-brother, however, wears name brand clothes, recently bought a new car (on my sister in law's dime) and is constantly standing with his hand out ofr money that his dad (the step dad) will give him without question. My mother in law and step father in law have recently bought themselves new cars, as well. The money is supposed to be direct deposited monthly into an account with only my sister in law and mother in laws names on it, but it is deposited into the step dads account. My Mother in law is spineless and won't speak up.
