I need some impartial opinions.
I will try and keep a very, very long story short.
Grandparent has died. I provided 90% of care prior to their passing. It was hard.
I never expected anything financially as the will was clear and it wasn’t a secret, everything was to be split between their children equally. I provided the care because I wanted too not because I thought I would benefit in some way.
Here is the AIBU.
My parent has received the money from the estate and would like to give myself and my siblings a financial gift.
They would like to give us £2000 each.
I feel really annoyed by this.
Neither of my siblings saw my grandparent for at least four years.
I suppose I feel miffed that I dedicated so much time and effort to providing care when they didn’t and that they will now benefit.
I have tried to work out what I would want to happen and I just don’t think it is fair they benefit.
I probably am being unreasonable as the money is now my parents to do what they want, it just stings I suppose.
