A Sisterly Standoff: Dentist vs Debtor
In a family drama that could rival any soap opera, the Dentist Sister finds herself at odds with her Homemaker Sister. After years of living beyond their means, the Homemaker Sister finds herself in a financial crisis and turns to her sibling for help. But when the Dentist Sister offers practical assistance instead of a handout, the Homemaker Sister lashes out, leading to a family fallout. Now, with the Dentist Sister cut off and the Homemaker Sister in dire straits, the question remains: Who’s in the right? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this family feud…

Don’t sweat it! You’re NTA for not helping financially

Stand your ground and don’t let them take advantage of you!

NTA. They need to live within their means and manage money

“NTA. Setting terms on a handout or loan isn’t lording over anybody about anything. Without a plan, she’s just going to come back asking for more later. If she has a plan, she should have said so and the conversation could have continued instead of escalating to social media blocking. It shows a lack of maturity on her side.” Teach a man to budget with what he has to work with and he’s more financially responsible.

Generous offer, no cash lump sum. Not the a**hole.
