[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 753430, member: 18958"] So. With her money she gets to buy her recreational drugs. And your hard-earned money goes to pay for essentials, including her personal items, and copays. This is like my son last month. I knew he didn't have the money to pay for food for the month, so I said, OK. For this month don't pay me rent. Because I hate the begging that goes on when he doesn't have money. So. What does he do? Buys marijuana with this windfall, without recognizing or uncaring that it was my money he was using, to buy it. We are not going to change this type of behavior. But we can learn from it. I am rethinking what I wrote above, where I went against what I believe and suggested an allowance to minimize conflict. I want you to have a moment's peace. But how could you live with this? That she would use your money to support a vaping habit. Honestly. I seldom am without words. But I have none here. I guess it's too close to home. [/QUOTE]
