That's sad and pathetic. You know you have a real addiction when you ruin a family member's chance for the future. Now that kid will go to college and acquire debt...whereas that trust would have substantially funded most, if not all of his schooling. They need to trick her somehow into coming back to Indiana. Maybe she won a (fake) lotto she had forgotten about, can you say sting operation?

A grandmother??? I hope a celebrity or philanthropist steps in. Too many people bragging about "balling" to let this go down

That's just sad that someone would do that, as she'll never pay it back either.
