Parents, Do you tell your siblings your childrens salaries?

[Amy10223]

Do you also ask your siblings what they make, or say what you make so that they tell you what they make? What makes people want to compare whatever you have to theirs?

No, I don't generally do that, unless the sibling just got a new job, promotion or raise and they want their siblings to know what they now make.

I have 3 adult kids and I only know what one of them makes. I can make a guess at the other two, but I don't really know for sure.

[Amy10223]

Ah, I meant your own siblings, such as your brothers and sisters. Do you let them know what your kids make? I’m asking because I have a sibling who is so proud of her son she told me his salary. I would not do that, too personal. She also once tried asking me what I made, when she told me her salary.
She is the only sibling that does this, mind you. And only to me, not my other brothers or sisters. Hmmm

@Amy10223 My sister has passed away, but I never told her what my kids are making, though I did describe the jobs they had.

[Amy10223]

Sorry about your sister. ☹️
Im the same, I would say what my kids do but never their salaries.

[Guy13]

No. It’s none of their Business. I don’t know anyone who wants to know anyway.

Don't ask and don't tell
