FIL has sacrificed a lot for his eldest daughter's education. He does not deserved to be cast out of her life as an enemy. What she can do to her own father she can also do to others close to her. She is what is called "damaged woman" with no pity or empathy for others. TS had better be careful.

The writing is on the wall. FIL is going to die penniless and he will drag families from all over down with him. My suggestion would be to cut ties ASAP. Don't even bother sorting this out.. Get your share and get the fuck out.

You mean after you have milked everything from your parents you should discard them like a used condom? Leave them to fend for themselves in their twilight years?

and folks, this is why being a self-made, self-independent person is and will always be the proper way to go..

I'm a firm believer that once you reach 18, you are on your own.. especially if you are a male.. family business and relatives be damned.. if they are drawing from family, the more mouths feeding on the nipple is going to drain the milk faster! I've seen it all too well.. friends who can't buy a house because their parents already used my friends names to get business or housing loans.. Multi-generational family staying under one roof.. cousins, brothers, sisters.. all a fucking mess and comparison/unfairness that I wonder what the hell are you putting yourself through all of that for..

Sure, you can depend on your parents for support starting off.. but eventually, you need to be weaning off your parents support. So they can use their peak working years to save up a nest for their own retirement.. That way, all sides won't be left in a shit storm like how TS family undergoing now..

I think this is the ONLY good thing to learn from Ang-mo. As they believe in independence once you turn 18.

the main issue with TS family stems from the FIL having multiple wives and multi-generational kids.. He is in his twilight years of life, but still have kids as young as 20 to support?? that is crazy..

The writing is on the wall. FIL is going to die penniless and he will drag families from all over down with him. My suggestion would be to cut ties ASAP. Don't even bother sorting this out.. Get your share and get the fuck out.

How do you reach independence at 18 without a lot of support and resources from your parents? When your parents need support in their twilight years quickly cut all ties before they drag you down?

How many people have benefited from FIL when he was younger and earning a good income? All 3 of his wives have properties in their name or occupied by them. He probably paid or contributed to his children's education.

I agree at his age no extraordinary measures should be taken to keep him alive but he does not deserve to be cast aside to stew alone in his own misery as what you are effectively suggesting.

You have 2 rude and selfish kids who offended the feelings of your American gf and your then ex-wife's bf. In your selfish ego, you condoned and approved the rude behaviour of your 2 kids. Your kids may turn out to be like the spoiled brat Michael Fay. Maybe you should do something about your selfish ego and your 2 rude/inconsiderate and selfish kids.

"Bapa borek, anak rintik" or "Like father, like son/daughter".?

I think your comment is too harsh. They were kids, they behaved as kids who did not understand the situation between TS, their mother and the American woman. Even if they were aware that their parents had separated how else do you expect kids to behave? Do you expect them to say "Hi Daddy, best wishes to your new girlfriend?" I don't understand your comment about TS's "selfish ego" either. He was concerned about his kids, what selfish ego were you talking about?
