All of us who pay for medical insurance ourselves have paid for his family's care. IMO that is selfish and manipulating the system. Not very Christian-like if you ask me.

It must have been overwhelming to try to keep their huge family in line when they were younger, and I know that being a parent can be stressful. What they once thought was necessary or a good decision,might not feel that way anymore. I think they know that they need to trust their kids, and hope the values they instilled will hold.
