Is She Being Unfair or Standing Her Ground? 🤔
After discovering her husband's infidelity at his funeral, this widow agreed to set up a college trust for the affair child and let them live rent-free in one of her properties. When the child needed medical treatment, she allowed the mistress to use some of the trust funds. Now, as the child is ready for college, the mistress is upset that the trust fund hasn't been replenished. With the widow's family weighing in and calling her actions unfair, is she being unreasonable or simply honoring the original agreement? Let's see what the internet thinks of this complicated situation... 💬
