My sister & went through the same black/white role reversal. And my

sister is now getting a lot of $$$$ from my nada/fada. She also has

lots of reasons why it's OK for her to accept these " gifts " . It's hard

to say " no " to $$$, but it's not worth giving up a piece of your soul

in return! My parents BUY love. They use money as a tool to divide &

conquer. Simple as that. It sucks.
