to buy electric or not...

what does she exactly struggle with? is she an overspender, addicted to shopping, addicted to something or just careless. I have seen many posts from yourself about you bailing your mum out and really she needs to work out whats happening and why its happening and as people have said if u keep bailing ehr out £50-£100 a month then she will come to expect it!

Something I would find difficult, I always paid 30% of my wage to my parents for my housekeeping money but also contributed in other ways on many occasions but they were and are not the type to take the pee!

Hi PAP

Your mum should be so proud of you - you sound like a very good/kind person to know.

Hopefully she will learn from your good example

Well done hun

I know its not easy for you, but I agree totally with Will.

You are bailing her out a lot.

One day youll want a place of your own, and what wil she do then?

She needs to learn. Maybe a thirfty days book for her Xmas if you havent got her stocking sorted yet

You're all heart. No, I don't know the full story, I might be out of line, but if there's more to it can someone put a link up so people don't read this and think like I do?

will... lots of things hun... she hasnt got great jobs... shes not good at budgeting and basically the opposite to me... thats why i dont want to help her anymore but its hard :rolleyes:

lil_me... i give her £30 a week... but because of her debts it all goes from my bank account to a dca... this is why she is struggling as she wasnt paying this debt before

jessica... i try... once my father left i changed into me (the opposite of my father) i help where i can and make sure i am around for people when they need me...

lynz... no its not easy... but eventually i will be compromising my future... i know i have to be tough... but yes some days are hard... hat book... is it anygood? i could slip another pressie in

nicky... i have posted lots of time about my mum... basically as some has posted on here i always help my mum if it be extra money or money lent to her... but its geeting to the point where i am giving her too much each month... :rolleyes:
