“Does his sister lack those things then? His sister and her husband are working and have a steady income. My parents—in— law are helping them to take care of their children and they too have social insurance, so their pensions combined ar «e more than enough for their expenses. Yet, they still want Hank to give them an allowance. Isn't Hank just subsidizing his sister's fa mily? “His sister and her husband's income are untouched because they spend his par ents’ and Hank's money. If Hank didn't have a family to support an d was willing to spend money on his sister, no one could say anyth ing about that. But Hank has his own family, and we still have a m ortgage to repay. How could she have the nerve to spend her brother's money to support her family?!” Liberty could not understand her husband's behavior.

I'm not saying that he shouldn't give them an ything, but he should give them less and save more for Sonny's education.

She took her nephew from Jasmine's arms while saying to her sister, “Liberty, you can start looking for a job n ow. You can leave Sonny to me. I'll take care of him during the day "It's so that if you decide to get a divorce in the future, you can ¢ onfidently fight for Sonny's custody.
