[QUOTE="Weary Mother, post: 698916, member: 20487"] wow, how interesting recoveringenabler. What I did was not actually give her money, however she makes really nice bracelets and I have sold them and sent her money to her. When I told her I was sending money again, and she had expressed she was needing to pay an electric bill, her response was very flat and disinterested. Just "ok". I felt I had gone out of my way to get her started selling something that would earn money honestly and suggested she get an etsy account and take responsibility for selling them herself. So, perhaps helping is really not something that everyone appreciates and other like myself would have kissed feet to have some help like that. I got no help and was left to figure out my own life, and it was painful. Which is why I always think others will feel the same way, apparently not. [/QUOTE]
