[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 387257, member: 1233"] My mistake. I would have been furious too. What was "mr I's so tough"'s reaction to sister in law's teasing? How long do you give it before easy child and nichole both tell him to F' off? I hope that Katie can ditch him, though he really seems like the kind who would just hang around acting pitiful to try to get her to take him back or to make the kids feel sorry for him. She is going to have to be very strong if she wants to turn things around for her kids, because it doesn't seem possible for her to do it with-o him. One thing has been nagging me. Where did katie's mom find all the $$ she sent? If she was living in a shelter, how did she get all that $$ and why didn't she use it to help herself instead of sending it to Katie? It makes me very wary of her. I can only think of a few ways that someone in a shelter who wasn't working could come up with that much $$. NONE of them are legal except for begging, and I don't think that begging would get that much $$. How long before you learn that someone is "after" katie's mom, or has hurt her badly, to get that $$ back? Or you find that she is in jail or the hospital from whatever she did to get the $$? I hope that you NEVER agree to hold $$ for katie. If her husband EVER suspects that you have held $$ for her he will never leave you alone again but will forever pester you more than he already does. Has katie already gone through all the $$ on things like costumes, soda, and movies? If she goes through it before the 4 weeks are up (you said she only paid for 1 week motel rent when she should have paid for 4 weeks up front), I hope you do NOT let the adults stay at your home. Not at first. Esp not with the way they were calling you to ask for rides and stopped helping out as soon as they had a few dollars. I hate what the kids go through, but if you rescue the kids it will just make things worse. For you it will destroy your situation as you just don't have the $$, and for the kids it will let their parents be even more irresponsible. I just hope that they don't turn to something illegal. The kids don't need that and you don't need the grief. [/QUOTE]
