In a recent story, an online community member we’ll call Salem describes how their grandmother patched things up with her aunt in a wonderful world of petty revenge. Salem’s grandmother raised her children with love and pampered them. Two of her children, Salem’s father and uncle, became drug addicts. Salem’s aunt, let’s call her Miss Jay, drifted away.
Target
Salem has no idea if he and Ms. Jay have met since they have many relatives. She left without looking back, but kept asking Salem’s grandmother for money. Miss J. did not want to repay her debt, and her mother carefully wrote down every penny. She was a hardworking woman who would not let anyone get away with her money. Salem had never seen anyone manage their finances as well as she did.
Will
She was diagnosed with cancer two years ago and eventually passed away. She gave her money to her grandfather, uncle, Salem’s siblings and Salem. Everyone in the family except Miss J. To Miss J she wrote, “You still owe me fourteen dollars.” It was funny because Miss J was only worried about the money and she didn’t get it. She is a drug addict and she needs money. Grandma made sure she had the last laugh.
It’s a good kick in the teeth
The retired lawyer says that while it’s impossible to make Ms. J pay fourteen dollars for an inheritance, Ms. J will never forget it. The specific mention of Miss Jay in her will shows that she deliberately left her out and could never challenge her. It’s a huge bill for grandma to ensure she has the last word. They hope that she is sitting on a cloud in heaven and smiling because she made everyone laugh a little.
Your grandmother is not a saint
Don’t you think Salem is missing important facts in this story? Someone notes that Salem’s grandmother supported her dependent children not for life, but for death. Probably Miss Jay didn’t want to have anything to do with it and left.
Grandmother’s neglect
People don’t cut off their families for no reason. The commenter, who has also become estranged from his family, asks questions about why two children are drug addicts and one is estranged. They think there has been some abuse or neglect. While it’s great that she cared for Salem and their siblings, she didn’t show any effort towards her children.
This is a common occurrence
One person writes that their spouse had a rich uncle; he kept a close eye on the money he gave to his children and made sure it was reflected in the will. His two sons were stunned when they realized that the machines and other personnel bought by their father were set against their legacy. Their less greedy sister had a better final reckoning.
The road to hell starts with good intentions
If you spoil your children and give them a good life, you are less likely to end up with drug addicts and an estranged daughter. The respondent claims that there are inconsistencies in this story. No one, isolated from the family, lives on a parent’s wallet.
That’s not all
Some participants in the topic think that they do not understand the whole story. They wonder if Granny’s two children were drugged for comfort while Ms. Jay couldn’t bear the feeling of being at home. Salem may not be fully aware of how they were raised. They also doubt that Miss J is as bad as she is portrayed. She must be the victim.
Your grandmother used you
Most parents use their grandchildren to make up for the neglect and abuse they show to their children. The person points out that this is a classic case of grandparent fault. They think Salem’s grandmother was narcissistic because she left someone with that memory for fourteen dollars. Narcissists often want to have the last laugh.
People are delusional
The latest netizen expresses shock at the praise that Salem’s grandmother seems to be receiving. They explain that if the last act of a parent is to stick it on their child, the parent has lived a miserable life. Unfortunately, the Internet notes that two drug addicts receive free child care. Maybe the grandmother should have included eighteen years of raising her grandchildren in her will.
