• It's good that she realized that they were taking advantage of her before she was out $100K, but losing $50K over six years is still a lot of money. It's so hard to say no to family members when they're asking for money for essential things, like bills, food, and transportation. If I were her, I would've probably stopped once they were asking for money for kids' sports. At that point, they're asking her to finance something that isn't necessary for survival. Kids' sports are something that could probably be afforded if one of her in-laws took the time to get a side hustle. But they won't, because they know that she's a pushover who will do whatever they ask!

• I'm glad he finally took initiative on his ADHD when the baby was coming, but I wish he could've done the same thing for his wife when she was making peanuts and supporting both of them, plus his family. He's just like his family: he knows that his wife is so forgiving and such a hard worker that he could put off taking control of his mental health for years, and she wouldn't criticize him about it or leave him.

• Why aren't they bothering their son for money? He's making so much more than she ever did? It's because they believe that she owes them something by being married to their son/brother. They are also so used to getting away with taking her money that they think they can harass her into working.
