So I am in need of some advice.
When I was pregnant I was still under my mother’s health insurance and instead of paying her money I put her on my phone plan. She lost health insurance (due to no longer wanting to work) so I had to quickly find health insurance before my daughter was born. Long story short I have been paying for her to have a phone for over a year now and I’m struggling with money and she refuses to pay/makes me feel guilty. And it’s causing problems with my husband. I don’t know what to do!
@ace160, no I’m thankful that you are being super blunt! I needed an outside perspective on this situation. Looks like I need to apologize to my husband.
I really appreciate it!
@lexithemommy, I totally understand that.. but is paying her phone worth the problems between you and your husband.. someone is going to be mad/upset either way but I would rather it be my mother instead of my husband who I live with and raise a child with it sounds like your mom just doesn’t want to do anything and wants everyone to do everything for her not to be mean.. but you said you lost insurance because she didn’t feel like working anymore so obviously she only thinks about herself again sorry trying not to be mean just how it seems
@ace160, I agree! I just feel super bad for cutting her off from it, because she will make me feel bad (I’m very sensitive) but it’s not okay for my husband and I to have fights about it.
I had a not completely similar issues but somewhat issue with my mom not giving me my child support that my dad was paying her for me ( I was 16 and moved out on my own) she didn’t need that money and didn’t take care of me anymore so she should have just gave it to me she always made me feel guilty for even asking, and it made my boyfriend mad because it would have really helped us out and he was aggravated because it was money to take care of me that she didn’t need, I never got the issue resolved sadly... I wish I had advice. You can’t give into the guilt though
@lexithemommy, your welcome love!!!
