Problems with my in-laws, Advice?

[Jessica♥'zErick]

Hello everyone! i've been married for 1 year now, and i love my husband very much but there is a big problem his family.
Right now everyone knows how economy is, my hubby and i are working very hard to save our money for the future. His parents live in Chicago and we live in Detroit 5 hours away. Since me and my man moved in together they been asking for money because they are broke, first of all we started from 0 and now we have our own car & apartment and his parents don't even have a house. They rent some house and none of them work. They have besides my hubby a 21 yr old girl who is in Mexico "studying", then a 15 yr old boy and a little 7 yr old girl. I mean c'mon for xmas we had to send them 100 dllr in order for them to come over here and pay everything for them, it was my worst xmas ever! my question is what can i do to STOP this? How can i tell them to stop asking for money and to get a job? Im very shy im that person who just can't say what i think you know what i mean? Please some one help! =[
Thank you!
And i don't want to hurt my husband either. I know they're his parents and all but his family is now me.

what does your husband think about it? if he hasnt noticed yet u should tell your husband in a nice way of course so he doesnt get deffensive otherwise right up a budget with him to show that yous cant afford to be giving so much money away maybe. i would leave it to your husband to tell them as then they wont take offence so much. or hint away about jobs to them like ask things as though your just making conversation so the wont take it the wrong way it may put the idea in their head. failing that just tell them u dont have any spare cash had a heap of bills to pay ect
