The answer

If your parents are in need, spending on them is a righteous deed, and it is obligatory upon you if your siblings do not spend on them and you are capable of doing so. If your siblings dispose of your parents' money without permission, they are transgressors, and you must admonish them. However, this does not justify your refusal to spend on your parents when they are in need.
