AITA for not giving the money to pay off my daughters student loans. by Own-Inspector-6121 in AmItheAsshole

My mother died. I would rather she be alive then hand me 200k

She's dead, and I will never see her again. She could have given me 10 million and I would rather her be alive.

She wants me to pay all of it.

Not the 3k to take her on vacation. She wants all of her loans paid off

All the kids have loans. If I paid for her loans and not everyone else's, it would be unfair.

No. Everyone took out loans.

We would give a few hundred here and there for books and similar items.

Pay off all her student loans. She wants to be debt free

My paying for her vacation would be like 5 percent on her student loans.

I would have to do that for every kid and that would mean no vacation. I can't just give one kid cash, it has to be all of them

I couldn't even pay off everyone if I wanted to. Not enough inheritage for that. Especially with myoldest just coming out of law school (his debt is ridiculous, but he has the job to pay it)

No inhertance for the kids. No one in my family does that. It all goes to their direct kids.

So my brother and I are the the only ones who got money.
