Ok, I have an important question to all you lovely women who have a family and that are living on their own with full of responsibilities. basically the grown up life.Well my question is Would you be gladly or willing to help a sibling who is homeless into your home??? where you have a spouse and raising kids involved? Would you or could you not help them? Or is it just me??? because I feel like I can't do it.By the way the sibling is 27 years old and a male.
I have did that a few times once with my husband nephew who ended up stealing from me (a few blank checks), then with my husband brother and his girlfriend didn't pay us rent and stole from us. And my stepson who ended up getting arrested as well as not looking for a job and stealing from us
I would help them if they are responsible,and safe for my kids to be around.Its hard to try to solve everyone's problems.I would help family temporarily,but let them know before they move in I'm giving them for EX 6mnths to get back on their feet,a month B4 talk to them nd remind them next month I need them out..
When I lived by myself I helped out my younger sister, worst mistake ever! Don't get me wrong I love her to death, but we were arguing constantly there were many things we didn't agree on and eventually she had to leave
Talk to your husband about it first and if you do let your sibling stay with you. Let him know that you're only here to help them get on their feet and it's temporary and that you want to see him out everyday looking for a job if not then it won't work.
i did with my brother...problem was he didnt want to help himself..so i told him after months living with us find a job or move out! he moved out!.. another thing it can affect your relationship with ur man tho.. talk it out with man!!! n set boundaries before hand to ur brother..
To be honest i did it. I had Two kids and my hubby. I took that person in with a baby boy and it didnt turn out as i asumed. had to clean up after her and her son and when i tryed talking things out it would always seemed she turned things around on me to make it seem i was the mean person or i was taking advantage of her situation. When i finally asked her to leave found out she was talking a whole mess of stuff of me and my family. Not good at all..
I have a dad and brother who refuse to work and for that reason they are homeless. If had tried numerous times to help them, and their situation, but I ended being used. I can no longer help those who won't help themselves. I understand who hard this is for you though. I say help him, help himself. But don't let him take advantage. You to have a family, and because you are grown up, is no reason for anyone to guilt you.
Wow! Thanks so much for this advice, I needed it.I thought for a min there that I was evil spirited and selfish. Thank you @reaganmommy2015 @lucylue @j.desantiag09 @bree.herrera @leesambee @b_morales @damandakillion @katiemomma2be
