It's an extra fee. We know it's 'available.' But - it's too much to pay in this economy to watch a bunch of reruns. Oprah has her share & then some. Bye Felicia -
Oprah should have dropped the moochers into a house to fend for themselves and have cameras film everything, a new reality show called Moochers. I'd watch. 🤩
My daughter lives with me for a few years and moved out because she didn't like my rules. She was working and still had a hard time in her mind giving me $20 a week. She bought food with food stamps and thought that was the rent. I'd give her a list of food for me because I didn't eat like she did but she'd rarely get anything on my list. Sometimes shed forget. She left thank God! Fast forward 10 years and she's homeless. I offer her a place to live and she trashed my house in a few short weeks and won't clean up after herself. She eats all my food. She can't stop eating. It's weird. Goes in the pantry and eats everything while in the pantry closet. She's brain damaged by now from drugs and cannot complete a task and is super paranoid. Goes through all my cupboards and closets constantly. She left to get a job. It was a relief! I was worried for my safety actually. She hasn't gotten a job and it's been a year. She's living with friends and they can't get her to do anything. She mooches food off of them. I'm glad she's gone. It was awful. I won't even let her in the house because of the safety issue. I lock all my doors now which I didn't do before. I got a dog, too. Put a beware of dog sign on the front door.
25 years later - some of these parents are likely passed on by now. Would love to see a follow-up. That 39-yr-old is pushing 65. Yikes: 😮 Jessica's baby is grown...
This seems to be my life. The amazing part is that my daughter's ex husband, although is good to the children provides no support. The court recently lowered child support that he doesn't pay anyway. My daughter does the best she can. My help assures her that the boys get everything they want, most of the time. How long should I do this?
You're done doing! When you have to ask the question, that's your answer. I have a friend with an almost 50 year old alcoholic son that she let back in her house and now her house wreaks of his funky cigarettes. He doesn't work, begs her for money so he can get drunk. She is in a full depression. Telling her to put him out is not something she can bring herself to do and it infuriates me to see my friend being sucked into his disease. My advice to you, even if it hurts you to put her out - let it hurt. Give her a time limit to leave, stick to it and go find your peace. People make their own choices in life and then they want others to live their consequences. We have to learn to help without making people comfortable enough that it becomes enabling. I wish you the best❤
