So I'm happy to support my wife
's ever increasing extended family
FTFY
Your comment made me laugh because it was based on your experience in Cambodia and not mine.
There are 12 siblings in total in my extended Cambodian family plus their children and not once in the past 6 yrs have they asked me for anything.
When hard times hit they band together and support each other.
I always make sure the wife has a few extra dollars in the bank a/c that she can call upon if a problem arises.
She is 100% responsible for this money and can spend it as she sees fit, she does not need to seek my approval to spend it.
After looking at the Tin Oven she was building on our land to provide temporary housing for her brother, I told her to spend more money and make it more comfortable.
Hence my latest post on this thread.
