Simone, it is so annoying! My grandpa did the same thing to my dad and uncles years ago before I was born. They had to move to other cities to continue their education because of their stepmother. Thanks to his wife, grandpa refused to support dad and uncles financially after high school (which is not the usual case here in Turkey). That step grandma has 7, yes SEVEN, children from her previous marriage and they were sponsored by my grandpa, their education, wedding expenses...etc. Again nothing was given to my dad and uncles. But as always there is some good in every bad. My dad has become the person he is now with the help of these incidences. He was able to stand on his own feet at a young age. He set up a whole new life away from those family politics. You wanna know what is more tragic? When grandpa got old and sick and needed care, my dad was there for him, paid for his healthcare expenses, operations, medicines... He was there next to him in his death bed. Sad...
