    Her husband's reaction is exactly why she took the money...because she knew she could and get away with it. This "mother" is selfish and lazy. She has raised this boy to be a weakling all his life...refusing to cut the cord so she could take advantage of him for as long as needed. She knew this money was there, and has been planning this for years.

I called the credit company to confirm I had accounts open then told my mother she better pay those cards off or we’re going to have some problems.

      Legal theft does exist.
      I suppose its how you look at it, but you can legally take (steal) stuff from other people in some cases.
      Adverse possession on property is one such example. I can buy a plot of land, and say I move out of state/country for a few years, and come back, and find out someone has been living on it, or using it for some reason, they can go to court and a judge will force you to give up the land.

    i grew up in a 3rd world country and children are expected to give back to parents when they grow old. i love my parents, and they never asked me for anything, at least nothing huge that i cripple myself. my parents have enough to live comfortably until they die and they never expect me to support them.

    Jade and John were terrible. Really miss Dave on these types of calls. Please tell me how many times a son is going to prosecute his mom, whatever the allegations are. They failed to ask how long has she had access, was there any agreement with son that mom was entitled to any of that money, also what the heck did she do with that money?

      Exactly my thoughts. The caller sounded more entitled to the money than anything else in my opinion. It's an inheritance account and the mother is still living!

      I noticed they didn't help her solve the money issue. She was probably asking how she could financially recover, not if her mother in law should go to jail.

      There's a million holes in this story and the caller sounds out of touch with reality at best...I'm callling BS on the whole thing.

    Glad I never had that kind of relationship with my mother - she was a normal, sane lady.

    Her husband is a huge coward. His mother ruined their lives. They should of had her arrested. If I were her I still would. He’s supporting her knowing she took their life savings.I would seriously question his part in the marriage.Obviously, he puts his awful mother first.

    Starting to think that hubby spent the money and mom was the scape goat… why else would he still want to protect and send her MORE MONEY if she already took everything?

    There's a word in Spanish. It's called "mamitis". It's a grown man still attached to the umbilical cord.
