You just cant help some people. I wouldn't mind but she earns the same as me and also her partner is on good money. They are both, however, crap at taking care of their finances, and constantly overspend. I am not giving her any more this month. I have 3 other children, 2 of which still live at home, and one of them is still at school. She needs to be more responsible and i have to learn to say no to her. It is difficult I know, as my guilt over-rides all common sense where she is concerned. Take care now. nannywoofwoof

I agree so people just can't be helped. It's good to help your adult kids from time to time but u have to have a limit. Plus it's best to help people that are honestly trying to do better. It sounds like ur daughter and her husband are not putting in any work toward fixing their situation. Make sure u always remember that ur well being comes first. IDK if ur religious or spiritual but prayer really helps me.
