[QUOTE="klmno, post: 271554, member: 3699"] I think you have reason to be concerned. I don't know her but I can see that she might just be struggling to get some business going and she doesn't have much money to put into it. That doesn't mean you can let her "use" you. I think you should decide what, if anything, you want to do to help out. You can tell her that you can't offer professional services free of charge. If you want to give her a discounted rate, that would be appropriate. If there are parts of this you can do via email or phone, you can offer that so that your weekend time isn't given up. If you don't want to get involved at all, that's understandable, in my humble opinion. Maybe just tell her you are already slammed with work and point her to someone else who might could help her.
