I'm 35 and currently my sister is not speaking to me ( she is44 and divorced). Thru conversation she informed me that she will be paying for her son's vacation again this yr. Maybe i shouldn't have said this but before thinking I said, "I thought you were trying to teach him some responsibility?"..background..? He moved out one month ago and parties every night w/friends. He works but spends his $ on "good times". When he lived at home he never cut the grass, shoveled the snow, took out the trash or cleaned his room. My sister did!! She still buys him clothes and gives him $ for groceries. He (had been planning the move out for 3 mo., saving little $. His dad gave him $ to help move and I KNOW my sis did. She blew up and told me, "I'll spend my money the way I want to!!". I told her I never said a thing about "how u spend ur $, only about u said about teaching him responsibility." I won't say another word about it but is she helping this young man?? She does know how I feel.

She knows how you feel now shut up and mind your business. If you open your mouth it will be friction so let it go. He will grow up one way or another.

She is right...it is her money and it is none of your business unless she asks you for advise. I agree she is not teaching him responsibility and is helping create a very irresponsible son which is going to have a very sad ending for him as well as his parents. Very sad but stay out of it.

Sound like he is very spoiled, no one should have to take care of a 22 year old, what a loser.

He is probably spoilt and she is probably a sucker for still propping her son up. But really, it is none of your business to pass judgment on either your sister or nephew.
