Arrgggghhhhhh
Know an gray haired adult child who is whining/complaining their adult parent didn't leave them enough inheritance. Yet that same parent depleted bank accounts and remortgaged the house to pay the price of that child's drinking, drugging & party lifestyle. The parent hoped they eventually would grow out of it but decades after issues as a teenager they never did. The funeral/burial are covered and will wind up with more money after estate settled but they are actually puzzled/resentful their parent didn't buy/have a 6 figure insurance policy for them. We'll let me see, the parent was busy repaying a second mortgage taken out because of that child along with paying their own bills.
I consider anything I inherit from anyone a bonus.This kid felt entitled, commented through the years about their plans when their parents are gone with their inheritance. We tried telling the parent your child is a leach and you spent more than a enough on them to the point of enabling. Tried to tell them support and financial support are two different things. Sadly in their final years they realized the gravity of their child's behavior but it was too late. Financial stress among other issues did them in. Things got so bad their was no way they were going to pay that mortgage without help and pride would've stifled a call for help from others.
But that sense of entitlement.
