Christmas money dilema??

ok perhaps if you specifically name who you are talking to then i wont assume you are talking to me. i mean how could i actually take it for granted that your sarcasm was aimed at me. how shallow of me. maybe there is another lovely person on here that will realise you are talking to them and answer your question.

post their names so they know who they are.

Do you mean to each other or just married generally?

at least if we were married to each other there would be no arguments about whether to spend the kids money or not

of course she wasnt talking to me though was she

carolwat

I am in debt. The OP DIDN'T SAY she didn't have money to feed the kids, did she? She wanted to use the children's money to pay off her debts.

She said she would use it to buy beds for the kids. Others then said they have used their kid's money to keep the family afloat when they had no money. I am in debt but I have never not had money for the next meal. Until I have been there I won't criticise others for the difficult decisions they have had to make.

i am referring to the OP as that is who has asked for an opinion. i never suggested it was theft i think you will find if you look back that was somebody else. i then went on to agree with that person but i certainly didnt suggest that in the first place. there are a lot of people doing the best they can to provide for their families and some people do that by breaking into other peoples houses and taking what doesnt belong to them. is it ok thought as they are doing their best. of course it isnt ok, that is stealing. im not saying that the OP would be on level with that kind of person but it does involve the same thing in that you are taking what doesnt officially belong to you. how can one kind of taking what doesnt belong to you be ok but another not.

You agreed it was theft - so presumably you think it is theft? That is what I am objecting to. It is not theft. It is at worst borrowing from one's kids. Not one person has suggested they would not make it up to their children later. Breaking and entering is nothing like the same thing!

Not that I'm the grammar police or anything but isn't it ...

"your child's money"

And as for the rest of the thread *yawn*, it's getting boring.

well my son isnt well so i have to go now and help him back to sleep. i thin some people should really take the time to realise that not everyone is the same and it would be a boring world if we were. people should be allowed to have different opinions without being told to leave.
