...granpa's giving out moeny to total strangers

This is very simple...as long as they are of good mind, the Family can certainly discuss their Concerns with them..however, after that it is their Money and they have a Right to do with it as they want. THE END...smiles.

Well, I'll tell you, this same thing happened with my Grandmother once when she went into the hospital for an operation one time. I'm thinking now it might have been the start of what they called Dementia later on, but can't be sure. She was a roommate for a lady with one child, whom her hubby cheated on her (or left her?) and as far as I know they had no money. Well, my grandmother thinking she was rich (she was not) gave her an undisclosed amount of money and I found this out when my mother went with her to get her taxes done. The whole thing surprised me as she was always so frugal with us and would have us ASK for anything if we needed it and yet just up and gave this stranger money for the reason she said she was in a bad situation. I'm all for helping people in dire need, but the woman could have been lying, I know my Grandmother had been giving the nurses some extras as far as $ here and there for favors she wanted done for her (special snacks and stuff to that nature perhaps) and maybe the lady saw her doing that and thought she had more money than she actually did. Well, it was her money and she should do with it what she wanted, but still, to do that for someone you never have known before your own family who were in need as well, I don't know. For me, I believe family comes first. I'm uncomfortable about how much she gave them, I will never know. When it was time for me to inherit the house, after taking care of her for 9 harrowing years, the house was in shambles and the money might have been used to fix it up so that it would be more livable for me. So instead I ended up having to sell it due to all the repairs it needed and also at the time there were some other issues such as my dad being out of a job.

Hi Jeaneyvonne. I feel the same way too for my parents. Well, he doesnt really give to strangers but he does give quite a lot to his church friends. Right you are, i wished my father saved all that money for his health because he has issues with his prostate as well. The sad part of this is that we cannot impose on our parents especially if they feel happy with it. Just the same, there are many times that these church friends depend so much on him and many times, you cant blame me for being so snotty on his friends. His friends are just users! hay!!!

Is it true that your grandpa is giving away money to strangers? Oh, what country and state are you from so I can be able to have money from your grandpas' too? Kidding! Well, does this happen always? How sure are you that he is giving away his money and how, and why exactly is he doing it? There are really people who really needs money and does your grandpa don't need them anymore for his personal needs? if not, maybe his whole family branch might need it. Why not give it to his family instead? There can be lots of reasons. Have you asked your grandpa why he is doing this?
