I personally think there is a right way and a wrong way of supporting your family. This thread exemplifies the wrong way:

In the thread above, the husband is burdening his wife to provide luxuries for his family back home.

Absolutely, a couple should provide for their respective parents and siblings (while the siblings are single) and if it means certain sacrifices to their own lifestyle, some sacrifices are acceptable. BUT, the support should not be at the detriment of the couple’s own family and their own future.

A lot of times its just plain jealousy too
