Our daughter called this afternoon sobbing because our son-in-law told her that my husband and I are being unreasonable about not co-signing and causing him mental anguish.  
 
I've directed them to this message board and that we wish them well, but they will have to figure this out independently.

Hello everyone, my husband and I are distressed concerning our daughter's spouse being upset because we've decided not to co-sponsor his Green card application.
 
They dated for a couple of years and were married last month.  Now they're in the process of applying for his ten-year GC.  Our daughter is also a student and doesn't make enough money to sponsor him on her own.  
 
Initially, we were willing to help, but we are about a decade away from retirement, and after reading the I-864 form, we don't feel comfortable signing.  The financial risk is what concerns us. 
 
He said if we don't sign the application, he can't work and is very upset.  We feel terrible and unsure how to proceed.

I'm feeling so much better about this situation; we thank everyone for the responses!  He was rather upset that they've already spent something in the neighborhood of $1000 on getting the process started and we felt guilty in not helping them.

We're trying to avoid the "no winner" statement.  He's been such an enjoyable young man until this situation, we understand that he's upset, but his reaction is so out of character.
