Taken from life. “Our daughter -in -law still pulls money from us”: a granddaughter always needs something, but there is never nothing

She called again. < img src = "https://zycie.news/crrops/25a702/620x0/1/0/2025/02/08/ouemgdofduteehdlbs9pato1cf3sr07wob479dd.jpg" alt = "from life taken. & quot; our daughter -in -law still pulls money from us" quot; styles = "background-color: rgba (151,140,112.1)" > < p > I heard the same tone in her voice & ndash; Slightly tense as if she didn't want to, but she had to say it. As if it was not her decision, but a sad necessity.

< p > — Mom, I'm sorry I'm calling again, but we have a problem & hellip; & Amp; MDASH; started.

< p > I already knew what would happen next.

< p > — What happened ? — I asked, although I knew the answer.

< p > — Victoria needs new shoe & oacute; in winter. The ones who have & oacute; are too small. We do not have a means of & oacute; in, Maciek has not yet received a payment, and I & hellip; You know how it is. < p > I knew. Victoria always needed something. Once they were books to school, at other times a new phone, because the old “bdquo; suddenly broke the & rdquo;. Sometimes money for tutoring, at other times on a class trip, which could not miss. And each time my daughter -in -law called us, with the same tone, with the same problem. < P >And every time I mesh the & I wiped & well; well; and I reached for the wallet. < p > because it's my granddaughter. < p > but one day something has changed.

< p > I went to the store and met a neighbor who goes to the same school as Victoria.

< p > — I saw your grandmother recently, it looked beautiful! & Amp; MDASH; She said with a smile. & Amp; MDASH; New jacket, fashionable handbag & Hellip; You can see that she lacks nothing!

< p > fooling me. < p > — New jacket ? — Rech & oacute; carefully.

< p > — Yes, from a branded store, I saw a similar one with my granddaughter in the catalog. Road like hell!

< P >My heart has accelerated. Just a week ago, the daughter -in -law called and M & oacute; that & bdquo; do not have basic things & rdquo;. That there is no shoes, for a warm scarf.

< p > So where does this jacket ?

< p > I didn't wait long. In the afternoon I called my son.

< p > — Maciek, you can explain something to me ? & amph; mdash; I asked calmly, though it boiled inside. & Amp; MDASH; Your C & Amp; Oacute; Rka had nothing to wear for the winter, and now she is in an expensive jacket ?

< p > there was silence.

< p > — Mom & Hellip; & Amp; MDASH; He sighed. & Amp; MDASH; I don't want to interfere.

< p > — Turn ? I give you money every month for & ampquo; the needs of Victoria & and now I see that she doesn't lack anything! < p > son hesitated.

< p > — I don't know what Karolina & hellip;

told you < p > — Truth! & Amp; MDASH; I interrupted him. & Amp; MDASH; That you never have anything, that Wiktoria walks in leaky shoes and it freezes. Meanwhile, it turns out that the money goes to something else!

< p > finally the son admitted what was going on.

< p > Karolina had a problem with money. They did not lack, but she always wanted more. Instead of buying Victoria, what she really needed, she put part of the money for herself & ndash; for cosmetics, clothes, gadgets.

< p > I felt my heart squeezed.

< p > I always helped because I thought it was necessary. Because I didn't want my granddaughter to be missing anything. And now it turned out that someone just manipulated me.

< p > that day I made a decision.

< p > I will not stop helping my granddaughter. But I will never give a penny of Karolina again. If Wiktoria needs something & ndash; I will buy it myself. But I will not let me use anymore.

< p > because family is love. But it should not be a way of life at the expense of others.
