[QUOTE="DDD, post: 528045, member: 35"] Another NO to rent to own. If you can get credit from an established company and you know you can afford it go for it. on the other hand if you have maxed out with the transition to at home parenting....go to a laundramat and use the quarters needed to get the clothes washed and dried. I totally understand that you have had to "downsize" your lifestyle in recent years but it is far better for difficult child to see the example of using a laundrymat than it is trying to stretch to the limit of your means.

They are difficult lessons when you have had financial cushions in the past but I have been there done that. I had to sell my home to provide education for GFGmom.
