I'm sorry about this but I need to get this off my chest. I live in a house with my mom, my grandparents (who aren't my grandparents but my two sisters grandparents), their son (my two sisters father), and his girlfriend. Well, my grandma is a bitch. She's a money grubbing person who spends every penny on things she doesn't need and will never use. She treats my grandpa like a piece of shit and screams at everyone. Her son is her pride and joy and can get away with everything. He use to smoke meth 24/7 and drink all the time. Well, now he smokes weed and not sure what else and still drinks with his alcoholic girlfriend who does drugs with him. I could tell my grandma until I'm blue in the face that her son does all this and she'll just say no! Not my son. He's clean now. No he's not. Well my grandma is uping the rent on me which is 200$ for me and when my son is born she's charging him 50$ for rent. My newborn son has rent to pay once he's born. It's bullshit. I get 375$ a month from Cash-aid. And I have 100$ in bills I have to pay (phone and doctors appointments). So that leaves me with 75$ a month to buy diapers, wipes and other things my son is going to need. I'm screwed because my grandma feels the need to take all the money she can get to buy more bullshit she'll never use. I want to move out and stay at a friends but it just lead to me and my mother fighting and I don't want to lose my mother over money and me being unhappy and stressed out all the time. I don't know what to do at this point. I've never felt so hopeless in my life.
honestly i understand where your coming from but also whatever she uses the money shouldn't bother u. yes its dumb for someone to charge more just because u having a baby but if u really see it, you can't depend on the money u get.. might sound shady but she's actually renting u cheap, not everyone does that. if u have so much problems with them yes you should move out for the best of ur baby and yourself but understand that nobody is gonna rent u for less that 400 a room for yourself. my parents used to charge me $550 without cable in the room and it would get me mad but if u really see it and helps u become more responsible. yes u might be young but a baby isn't a game and u should of that that twise. staying with a friend might help the first 2-3 days but more days then that comes a day were that family gets tired, problems start to come around and its better taking bullshit from family than taking bullshit from ppl that ain't. but yes if u think they're being unfair in anyway u should move out on ur own... just know that u would most likely need to pay food, rent, baby needs and maybe even electricity $375 won't be enough so ull need to get a job
I see, im sorry about that. I understand that it seems hard, you are not being selfish for wanting to move for you and your baby. If she was trying to help then she would stand up to your grandma and tell her to stop her shit. I know its hard to change places when you are so far along. If you wanted to wait until the baby was born to move that is fine and if you need a little extra money then let me know ill try to help in any way i can
I'd move out. Ya your mother may not like it but if she really loves you she'd understand. Do what's best for you and your baby. Hope everything ends up going good and keep your head up.
When I tried to talk to her we just need up screaming at each other. My friend lives 3 hours away and I would have to change my medical over and everything. And I'm already 35 weeks pregnant. I don't even know if it's possible to change it so fast but it feels like every turn I take I'm just getting pushed back farther. My mom just shoved the fact of her trying so hard to make everything better for me and just called me selfish for wanting to move. @georgesmummy14
just a suggestion..seems like too much stress for u and u dnt want to bring ur bby in that mess..try finding out what the county office can do for u..most times u have to be homeless for them to help with I think2-3 weeks of vouchers for a hotel room for u and ur son til u find a low income place u can afford they will help with first month's deposit and rent I believe..it's a once in a lifetime sort of deal so yeah either way u go about it wish u all the best blessings and positive vibes ur way @swsnsn
I am so sorry, you seem like a great person surrounded by ungratefulness. Stay positive and try not to stress. Hope all gets better
i understand where you are coming from. thats not right for her to charge u double and charge ur newborn son when he cant pay anything. i was in the same position when i was pregnant and finally moved out. i would suggest speaking with your mother and letting her know how u feel, u or the baby do not need this type of stress. it will be ok. if u need anything let me know. u are in mine and my families prayers. everything will be ok i promise. have faith and be strong. she shouldnt be doing that a baby is not capable of paying bills
do wat u think is best for your bby but I would move out honestly
