I (29M) have always been close to my grandmother (87F). She’s been a strong, independent woman her whole life, and she built a solid amount of wealth—around $3 million—mostly from real estate. Ever since I was a kid, she told the whole family that her goal was to leave something behind to help us. She’d say things like, “This money will help you go to school, buy a home, start a family.”
Well, now she’s saying something completely different.
Over the past year or so, she’s become really involved in a church. Nothing wrong with that on its own, but she’s suddenly decided that she wants to donate all of her money to the church. Not just a portion—all of it. She says things like, “You’re young, you’ll figure it out,” and “God will put the money to better use than you ever could.”
When I heard this, I honestly got mad. I didn’t yell or anything, but I was visibly upset. I asked her why she would change her mind after decades of saying it would go to the family. I told her it felt like a slap in the face—not because I expect a handout, but because she literally made us all believe for years that this was a legacy she was building for us.
She got really quiet and said I was being selfish and ungrateful. My mom thinks I should apologize and just accept that it’s her money and her decision (which I do understand), but my sister agrees with me that it feels wrong and manipulative—like the church is taking advantage of her at the end of her life.
so... AITA for getting mad at my grandmother because she wants to donate all her money to a church?
Edit for more information
I’ve let my grandmother live in my house for the past 5 years and a bit. I’ve raised my one kid there, and she’s always had a roof over her head. I also drive her anywhere she needs to go—appointments, errands, church, you name it.
So... am i STAH

I (31F) work in a hospital, and our shifts rotate between days, evenings, and overnights. It's tough, but part of the job. One of my coworkers, Melissa (35F), has two kids under 10 and always complains about the night shifts messing up her home life.
Last week, the new schedule came out and I got stuck with three overnight shifts in a row. Melissa approached me privately and asked me to swap one of my nights for one of her morning shifts because she “can’t handle another week of her kids not sleeping right.” I politely said no—I had already made plans around my schedule, and honestly, I don’t sleep well during the day either.
She pushed again, saying, “You don’t have kids, so it’s easier for you.” That rubbed me the wrong way. I told her I’m allowed to have boundaries, and I don’t owe her my rest just because I don’t have children.
She got snippy and told others I’m being selfish and “unsupportive of working moms.” Now a few coworkers are giving me the cold shoulder, saying I could’ve “helped out” this once.
But I don’t think it’s fair that I should sacrifice my health and plans just because I don’t have the same family situation. Everyone has their own struggles.
AITA for refusing to switch?
