Approach her like an adult, and ask her wtf is she doing. If she's broke in 2 weeks with 1100 dollar disposable income a month, she's either being rinsed by someone, or has an addiction.
my mom doesnt have an addiction she has a spending money problem on useless bullshit always has shes an impulse buyer
my moms 56 years old, shes lived the crazy life in the 1960-70s, she no longer uses anything but marijuana and her prescription medications but those are free so shes not spending money on that
i do approach her like an adult she refuses to speak to me like one.

Get angry. My old man use to treat me like a kid even though at the time i was in my mid 20s. One day I just snapped and basically told him how it was....since then he's been nothing but respectful. Try that and see how you get on. Some parents just don't lose that mentality that you're not a child anymore.

Stop stressing, you're pregnant. Your moms going to do whatever she does whether it bothers you or not.. You need to enjoy your life and stop getting caught up on negativity.. Enjoy your husband enjoy the fact that you have a piece of both of you growing inside of you.



Stop paying for everything . your husband won't be be okay with your mom taking advantage of you. He probably won't say anything soon but it will be a problem one day. Believe me when I say your husband could care less if your mom has cigarettes.. You're to nice, worry about yourself and your new family.. Don't hurt your current situation by enabling your mom.. She needs to change . ..its all up to her , not you.

my husband doesnt mind, really hes way nicer than i am

my mom isnt going to change, shes mentally unstable, im not going to let her starve just wish she would allow me to work on a budget with her to help her figure out how to use her money properly.

i love my mom, im not going to abandon her just because i have a husband and im pregnant..thats just selfish

Not starving or abandoned, the home care is plenty. If she can't see that you struggle to pay out of the goodness of your heart then she's selfish. Why are you responsible for her cigarettes? Your husband will not be okay with someone anyone taking advantage of the love of his life. You should keep helping her to a certain extent that's mom, but understand that you are not responsible for her. Once you give birth you'll realize where your responsibility lies.. You need to focus on things you can change. You can't change other people. Its cool that you're giving her, her own money.. But what happens when it runs out? this could cause problems between you and mr sunni just keep that in mind and tread lightly...

theres no problems with me and mr sunni
my mom is old with several mental health issues, fully diagnosed, she did everything for me as a single mother, now i return the favour the only thing that upsets me is that she wont work with me on money budgeting so that she can have her money last her the whole month with a possibility for a little saving for a rainy day

but everytime i speak to her about it, she flips out she wont listen to me.

thats all it is, i dont care about paying for her phone, i need that to stay in contact with her and she needs it to call 911 in the event of an emergency, and she also needs it to contact her caretaker for groceries, and doctors appointments etc,

im not struggling financially , she is because she cant budget which i understand is apart fully of her mental health issues, shes not fully aware of how to manage money because she doesnt understand it due to her limited ability of monetary skills

were not dealing with a cracked out mother who uses money i give her to enable her drug addictions, were talking about someone who has severe mental health disorders who needs to learn how to properly manage her money but is too embarrassed and stubborn to take advice from me
i dont care i give her 500$ a month extra, she birthed me, she worked several jobs as a single mother to try and give me the best life she could while dealing with depression and anxiety, she could have 4000$ a month if i could afford that much, fuck i would buy her a goddamn house ifi could...the money from CPP and disability is enough for a good breathe easy at the end of month life, but i want to make sure she has opportunities in order to go out if and when she does leave the house from her agoraphobia...so when she grocery shops if she passes by a cute shop with a nice top in it she can purchase it

the problem is she doesnt know how to manage the money, because she doesnt cognitively understand

It may not bother your hub now, but once you guys are a family with kids $$ always gets tighter. Sunshine's right: it will be a problem one day. You're not abandoning her if you help her budget her money. Stop giving her $. Trust me you'll need it for your own family. Yes she's your mom, but your first allegiance is to your husband/child now, not being your mom's daughter. (not meant to sound harsh but can't dictate tone over internet). If she's got social security or pension to live on, you shouldn't be floating her money. You will be needing that for your family. Kids get really expensive as they grow.

We're doing an estate sale ourselves this weekend up at my grandpaps place. Any of you guys got any tips? Not sure exactly what you can help with but got any tips? I've been practising some lines... "Hell no I'm not selling you that for $5, I'd rather pay $5 and throw it in that there fire and watch it burn."
Just basically act like you're better than they are, they're fucking retarded, and under normal circumstances you wouldn't even talk to trash like them.
