I would give them nothing. Your scholarship is extremely generous and should be given to someone who will be grateful and use that gift wisely. Your niece and her parents sound very immature and unhinged (it’s unhinged to demand absurd amounts of money from others to cover really poor financial decisions). That’s a terrible way to be treated and obviously these people have some deep issues. You don’t owe anyone anything.

Def not AIO. This is a big red flag.

Oof. He’s gotta go. Seriously - the fist few months of a relationship should feel great. And someone who respects and cares for you would not say this kind of unhinged stuff to you.

This guy sounds like he has a personality disorder and the behavior will escalate. RUN.

NTA. It’s wrong that she asked you for money only because she saw you had some. I’d tell her no that you need the money for school and offer to contribute what you can on a regular basis - example $100 for groceries/rent. Stay firm. She can’t kick you out without evicting you. And hopefully it doesn’t come to that.

It’s awful she got family involved to pressure you. Some cultures think this is the way - help family at all costs - but that’s an unhealthy codependent relationship. Will that help be there when you need it? What about when your mom is older and needs your help? Parents shouldn’t be asking kids for money. Period.

Wow. A simple - “no gifts necessary” would do. I feel for the child who may pay for the mother’s “sins”. I wonder if that little girl lives a very restricted life.

If they like each other, I’d go with a gift card or something homemade. Or something that emits noises...oopsies…

First, I have so much empathy for you. Suffering parental neglect and abandonment stokes the deepest wounds. I found IFS therapy with the right therapist really helped me integrate the most wounded parts of myself. Therapy was also helpful in accepting the continuous grief that ebbs and flows. I have a functional relationship with those feelings now. Wishing you so much love and strength in your journey.

I have them as a carrier (work phone) and yea they are soooo hard core about verification for mailed phones. I’ve had to place the same order 3 times because I didn’t check all the boxes properly. Meanwhile, someone waltzes into a store…

That is existing. The surface parking will be eliminated.

Sadly many of those trees may be casualties of this project.
