need advice -

K so my boyfriend and i live with his mother,step dad, brother and little sister. Plus my baby.-Husefull i knw but- we have just got food stamps and i have WIC and my boyfriends transmission went out on his truch yesterday- Well he asked his mom did he still have to pay all the rent since we give so much help with the WIC plus all the food stamps. She said he still has to pay the full amout, Even though she fusses at him for spending his money she asked for 100 dollars yesterday and when he said well do i have to pay rent since im giving you 100$ and she said he still did. She is a money hungry bitch or what? Oh and get this. She fussed at him for buying me clothes when i was pregnant and i couldnt fit anything ! But she maxes out her credit cards....Idk but i told my bf i wanted to move in wiht my sis and he thinks im being selfish bc he wont never see us. WHat shouldi do. im tired of this place. sorry so long but its complicated situation lol

why doesn't your bf just go with you?

You know...I dunno how much he pays in rent but I bet you guys could find a little apartment somewhere for what he's putting out to your monster in law. Between WIC and your Acess Card (thats Philly food stamps lol) you guys will be able to put more cash towards rent. Don't keep paying her all that scratch...even if you have to start out in a one room studio, at least you'll be doing it on your own and she'll have no say on how to spend your money!

Sorry, that does sounds stressful. Unfortunately, you are living under her house, and therefore have to live by her rules. If she chooses to max out her credit cards, she is an adult and that is her choice, and if she asks you for money other than what you have promised her (as in rent ect.) then you say no. Its that simple. You say "Im sorry, but we just cannot afford to give you extra money right now. We will honor are agreement and pay rent, but that is all we will be able to do"

As far as rent is concerned, are you paying as much there as you would if you had your own place? Are you paying for utilities, all the food? You have to understand that as much as it sucks, its probably going to be cheaper than living on your own. If it isnt cheaper than living on your own, then you move out.

Yea he cant move in with me and my sister bc she has a daughter too nad a husband..way too many ppl. for her house .but we are prolly just gonna get a house for $210 a month he said he can aford it and he wont have to pay her 100 a month anymore. plus she keeps saying we buy food and stuff and thats another reason hes broke. but thats bc she dont buy any groceries. she buys the most exspensive name brand everything, and that leaves little for the groceries.
