Gawd I have a SIL like that, she was always on the borrow and we would have to chase her for the money until one day she blewup and told us how selfish we were cos we had more than her..we never went out or drank in the house but she did..never lent her a penny again....
OMG!!!!!!!! I wonder if your SIL is my SIL too.
Cheeky mare my husbands sis....................I could tell you some stories but I wont bore you.
Gawd I hope not, she's a one..
Sorry, but as a parent myself, I woudn't allow my kids to be in the situation of being taken advantage of.quote:Originally posted by Aimee:quote:Originally posted by Dex:quote:Originally posted by Aimee:quote:Originally posted by Dex:
Never lend anything you're not prepared to lose.
A tenner's not worth stressing over, surely?
it is to a kid thats been saving for some thing
A decent parent wouldn't allow a child to lend anyone money in the first place. Sorry to be harsh.........

She said that to make you feel guilty about not giving it her.
I would leave it as she will be to embarrassed to ask again for money.

Those who read your post about your daughter know better, just ignore it
I hope that you've both learnt from it! I appreciate your heart was in the right place, but as you've found out, it was ill advised.quote:Originally posted by Aimee:quote:Originally posted by Dex:Sorry, but as a parent myself, I woudn't allow my kids to be in the situation of being taken advantage of.quote:Originally posted by Aimee:quote:Originally posted by Dex:quote:Originally posted by Aimee:quote:Originally posted by Dex:

My SIL moved away quite a few years ago .........there was a bit of bad feeling as her kids had been stealing from us for years ......started off with kids things and progressed to money.
Anyway .....over the years bridges were re built. My SIL stopped over at our house as she was going to a meeting up North recently.
Surprise surprise .............she opened her purse and realised she hadn't got her cash/credit card on her and needed fifty quid (which she'd pay back as soon as she got home) seven weeks on ................not a word.

....you know that money isn't gonna be returned any time soon. I'm just sorry your daughter had to be out of pocket.This is the second time I've tried to reply, so forgive me if I repeat myself.quote:Originally posted by Soozy woo:
What a pompous prat! If a mother had nothing to give her hungry baby (which was what they were led to believe) then it was simply a humane gesture. Not ill advised at all .................disgusting that it hasn't been repaid but - who knows the circumstances.
It was a humane gesture on the part of Aimees daughter .........can't see where you're coming from to be accusing about bad parenting etc.

If she ever has the front to come knokcing again and pimping her baby, just blank her. Then call Social Services with your concerns about the baby not being fed properly.
i've gave daughter the money back, incase i'm classed as a bad parent

Point taken. If it were me and a person who hadn't bothered to budget for something as important as baby milk asked me for money, the LAST thing I'd do is allow any of my kids to stump up for it. If I felt the need was genuine, I would've gone to the shop and purchased said item.

Aimee they are taking advantage of you because they know you have a good heart.
LEND them nothing no money none of your stuff and no to using your phone
I know your heart was in the right place of course it is when a wee baby is involved if she cannot be arsed to register her baby to get money,she obviously dosnt need it
P.S tell her there is a job going down the job centre the one they offered you.
