I have an acquaintance, a typical family: husband, child, and herself. They work, but the husband was sick for a long time. Thank God, he had surgery, everything normalized, and now he's working too. Today, we had tea, and she shared that their finances are really tight. Before his illness, they bought a plot of land and started building a house, then had to freeze everything. Now they're trying to continue, but prices have gone up, and things are moving slowly. They're basically living in a construction zone because there's nowhere else to go. It was tough in the winter, cold because the ceiling wasn't insulated. Everything went towards treatment, then surgery, and rehabilitation. Her parents have money, and she tried asking, but they refused, saying they didn't have any. I feel so bad for her. She's in a genuinely difficult situation; they aren't alcoholics or drug addicts, they've always managed on their own, and lived well before the husband's illness, but health is expensive. It's indifferent on their part, and on hers too. Their grandson will have to live in less-than-ideal conditions again, and they just don't care. So, the question arose: should you help your children? I believe yes, you should. I'd give my son my last penny. How can you calmly watch your child struggle and suffer while you just sit there? Life is so complex and unpredictable; you can't take money with you. Is it really that hard to help? I just don't understand...
