We went through that early on in the marriage. We had many discussions about when to help vs. when to keep for home. I don't think it's wise to loan money to another and then your own house suffers. And I do mean suffer - i.e. your lights being cut off or the rent not paid. Dr. Taffy - keep writing your words of wisdom.

Again, it should of been discussed at the early stages of their marriage. If it was agreed that he could do something of this sort, then it is ok. If it was discussed it was not ok, then he was not right for doing so. But the big question is what if it was not discussed, then is it ok. That is a tough one. They can both be at fault for not discussing this early on. This is a tough one. Again, it should of been discussed at the early stages of their marriage.
