Life as a single mom hasn\u2019t been easy, but we\u2019ve managed. Here\u2019s the shocking part: a few weeks ago, a woman came to my door with a kid and said, \u201cThis is your late husband\u2019s child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want half of his estate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At first, I thought it was some kind of scam. My husband has been gone for years. But then she pulled out a DNA test and started making demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I told her straight up, \u201cHalf of nothing is still nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The truth is, my husband didn\u2019t leave behind any estate. There was only one thing of value: a rental house his parents gave us years ago. Because it was in both our names, it automatically became mine when he passed.<a href=\"https:\/\/widgets.mgid.com\/?utm_source=youskill.us&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=widgets&amp;utm_content=1984051\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mgid.com\/services\/privacy-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I already sold it, and that money is going toward my kid\u2019s college fund. I checked with a lawyer, and legally, I don\u2019t owe her or her child anything. But now people around me are saying I\u2019m being heartless and unfair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They think I should give the other child something. Honestly, I don\u2019t agree. I have to put my child first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Am I wrong for refusing to share, or is this mom just trying to cash in on a sad situation?
