I have two siblings and all together 2 DNieces & 1 DNephew.
My sister's seemingly lovely husband turned out to be a cheating, lying twat. DSis managed to rumble him about a month ago, kicked him out and has been trying to sort out her life/finances ever since.
The truth of the matter is, Dsis is 39 and hasn't worked in almost ten years, ever since they had DNiece(9). They've lived a comfortable lifestyle and are in the middle of a very messy divorce, DNiece attends an independent school and soon to be ex BIL has threatened to stop paying for it if DSis doesn't start to act reasonable. Truth be said, she's is taking him to the cleaners and acting slightly scary.
She's currently started looking for employment and if she manages to put her degree to use can hopefully find something very quickly and suitable, but she's asked me if I would loan her the money for DNieces schooling for the following school year, it's a lot of money & I do trust she'll pay be back but I'm just not sure when and what if DBrother asks if I'll do the same for his 2 kids?
Am I overthinking it?
