OP, do you know what she spent it on by any chance? Like essentials or does she maybe have a shopping/hoarding habit?


TBH I’m confused. I don’t get how you spend this amount of money. She has a great job as a nurse anesthetist.

..... how do you not know? You don’t have any of the statements? How do you even know what the balance is?

She’s a sociopath who has no respect for you or your wife and enabling her is a horrific decision. If she has a great job why can she not pay it back?

This story is making less and less sense. You need to ask your wife if something like this has happened before to her or her siblings and then you need to file at minimum a civil suit but you should probably call the cops.

A widowed working nurse anesthetist spends 20,000 on a fraudulent credit card in her daughters name? That woman is insane and capable of making your inexplicably naive head explode. Good luck.

This woman is going to wreck your life and most likely the lives of your children as well if you let this slide and maintain a relationship like it’s no big deal.

I have one last very honest set of question you should answer: does she scratch herself a lot? Always seem tired but always has an excuse? Or random hyper mood swings? Does she seem erratic and you write it off as a personality?

I didn't see the total before... that's alarming as others have said. Is it possible she has substance abuse issues?

Maybe y'all will never be able to heal this rift after you transfer the debt to her name, but you may wind up saving her life if you figure out what the root issue is.

Then this is indicative of a much larger problem MiL needs to agree to address with therapy or you go to the police and her career is in danger.

If this is real, she has a severe spending problem and outright stole 5 figures from you and your wife. This isn’t on essentials like bread and rice or electricity unless her house is like the Christmas Vacation house 24/7.

Transfer the debt into her name. If your wife wants to press charges, press charges. If you’re wife wants nothing to do with her mom, you have nothing to do with her mom.

Think if it was your mom or your dad that did this. Would you want your wife trying to mediate?

Can you not get the statements and see where the money was spent? Find out if she bought anything like jewelry that can be sold

Now wait a damn minute. I'm thinking she's like retired and on only social security or something. Nurse anesthetist makes like $150k+ per year. Something isn't adding up here
