I am so fed up of this and I don't know what I can do to stop getting wound up. Basically my mum is like a never ending bank to my sister who spends all her money on take aways and god knows what else and then complains to my mum she has money for food/bills/ money to dress her child. Mum then lends her money which she never gets back. Mum then complains to me that my sister is always "hinting" to lend money and she is not going to do it anymore. I then find out later that she has lent her more money!! I have told mum that she is not helping her learn to budget. Myself and sister are both single parents and earn about the same amount of money. I save/manage my money and do not need to lend unless I have an emergency which doesnt happen often but then I pay back. My sister on the other hand throws a few £10's and the debt is wrote off. I hate to sound jealous but it really pi**es me off!!
Frustrating isn't it.....but you can't do any more than you have......except be really strong when she wants to grump to you......and that's difficult!...x
