Is my mom charging too much?

Mica98

That's a good idea, Idk if you saw my previous comment but I suggested to her that maybe she put a couple of the bills in my name and I pay those (I offered to pay gas, electric and water) . She wasn't really for the idea I must say

£57 all in .... I presume you're fed in that too?

Cheap!

Or, more to the point "very fair".

You are absolutely right with what you've said, I've never been able to describe it but you have. I've been in and out of councelling from ages 11-16 but never quite opened up properly. Also, not sure if you saw one of my most recent replies but I'm not insured to work where I currently am, additionally, my boss hasn't actually given me a formal warning so can he still sack me? On top of that, not everything is 100% legal where I'm working, had I known that, I would have stayed at my old job, this on top of my financial situation is very stressful, I'm desparately looking for a new job

When I attempt to buy my own food, it's apparently "inconsiderate" as I'm not buying for the both of us lmao

Her house, her rules. She could just tell you to pay £700 or leave, that minute.


You have no rights to reside there and do so only on the goodwill of your mum

Regarding the job. If it is not 100% legal, and you are not insured, then I don't think your boss is likely to worry about formal warnings and workers' rights, so the quicker you are out of there the better. If you do get sacked then it will be no great loss in my opinion, regardless of the financial situation. Would you be entitled to any benefits? Possibly not yourself but could your mum claim help if you are still in education? I'm not sure how it works but Citizen's Advice may be able advise, or there is a forum on this site I believe.
Regarding your emotional state then I would suggest that you see if you can get some sort of help with that. Some towns have counselling services for young people (16-25 years in my area) which you can self-refer to. Just having someone to talk to about things can help even if there is no obvious solution. Or try your doctor to see if they can help. Do you have any friends who you feel could understand. I find it helps me if I write things down and then read them a little while later. Sometime the situation has resolved itself, or I can see how I could deal with it whilst not in the middle of the emotional reaction.

I've tried claiming for benefits and JSA but due to me being in education, I'm not entitled. My mom can't claim anything due to my age
