I’m a mother of 17-year-old twin girls. When I was married to my ex-husband (not their father), he was abusive in every way possible, wouldn’t hold a job. It took me a long time to get away from him. During the time with him, we moved a lot, the kids changed schools etc, because I was the only one contributing to the household income, and I couldn’t do it all on just my income. During this time, my girls were strong; they helped me a lot, were honor students, all of that. This was their middle school years, 6th-8th grade. They started high school, we moved once more, out of district. Their school allowed them to stay, since they only had 2 years of school left, and gave them special permission. The youngest of the twins was showing signs of depression. I sought therapy for her. She sees a psychiatrist, has medication and sees a therapist. When the pandemic started and the kids went virtual, both of the girl’s grades started to drop. The oldest of the twins has since gotten herself together. She dropped AP classes and is focusing on her grade level graduation requirement. The youngest of the twins just doesn’t seem to care. They’re in talks of revoking her special permission, with 5 months left until graduation. No matter what I do or say, she just doesn’t seem to care. We have had meetings with the school, counselors, teachers. The school even tried an intervention for her where they sat me, her, the principal and all of her teachers down together. She has been told a dozen times by a dozen people that graduation is in jeopardy. She has a support system. Her grandparents on my side, her dads side and both step-parents are involved. As are her aunts and uncles, both parents and step-parents. So, am I an assho!e mom for telling her that if she doesn’t graduate, she has to pay her parents back for the money that we have shelled out for senior year? At this point, we have spent (for both girls) $800 for senior pictures, $200 on yearbooks, $120 cap & gown, $250 on class rings. Her step-dad and I spent $2000 on the rental for senior week. I want my kids to experience and enjoy everything possible during their very unusual senior year and keep it as normal as we possibly can for them. She was diagnosed with depression, social anxiety, OCD, and ADHD, but we are actively treating those issues. And she has no issue getting up and going to work, no issue doing what SHE wants to do.
The problem is enforcing that. Such a shame. She will regret it someday. Regress of her issues she needs to do what she needs to graduate. Who takes her to work? Ferries her around to places? Does she have a car? Quit catering to her. Tough love.
Coming from someone with pretty much all of those diagnoses, yes its hella wrong of you to ask her to pay it back. Shes struggling with depression and so many other things and you think getting up and going to work is something she wants to do? Do you not realize its a constant battle every single day for someone who struggles with those? Oh shes on meds, sees a counselor, has a support system? That’s cool, but sometimes that’s not enough to bring someone out of a deep depression. Its hard to pick and choose battles. I dropped out my senior year and never looked back because of depression. The extra mental stress it takes to do homework, read and think is really hard sometimes, so work may just be the easier of two evils.
I wouldn’t make her pay you back for this year. But maybe make her pay for it herself next year when she graduates.
You chose to spend that money. Maybe she feels overshadowed. Regardless your children do not owe you for providing for them, nor do they owe you for things you decide to spend money on whether they finish it or not.
The prospect of having to pick up the remainder of her senior year in a different school district is a surefire way to ensure that she will not graduate on time. So I’m a little reluctant to have an opinion in favor of her paying you back.
Do you really think adding MORE STRESS/PRESSURE and more of a reason to work than go to school is going to help ?!
Id take her for a mental health day , take her to lunch , have a day together just the 2 of you nd listen to her. Ask her why … ask her what’s going on . LISTEN and don’t be the over bearing pressuring parent and just be a loving mom for a minute… I can assure there’s a lot more going on than you know
She’s already depressed and you’re gonna add the anxiety of paying if she doesn’t make it. Just because the issues are “being treated” doesn’t necessarily mean it’s working. She might need different meds, this has been a hard year on everyone and some people struggled a lot switching to virtual. And the bigger question is did she ask you to spend all that money? Or did you do it out of the kindness of your heart. If you did it out of kindness it would seem it wasn’t so kind if you expect to be ‘refunded’.
I understand you are grasping at anything that you are hoping will turn her around at this point. It sounds like she should already have an IEP or a 504 in place with the depression and other issues going on. I would set up a meeting with the school and her iep group if she has one (hopefully she does) or they shouldn’t be able to just revoke if she has one. If she doesn’t have one yet she sounds like you might be able to get one in place
I would be more worried about her mental health than any money.
All of these illnesses and you somehow expect her to be able to cope with online studying? She goes to work because she can actually leave rather than stay put but you say you want her to have things then ask her to pay it back? I get tough love but this isn’t it.
No.
Worry about her mental status more than the money you wasted. Trust me.
You won’t be saying anything about that money if she ends up not being alive anymore. It is harsh and I’m sorry for saying that but, love her. Make her feel loved.
You’re her mother and it’s your job to care for her she doesn’t need to pay anything back. Don’t punish her more. I promise you with the way she is feeling and what she is going through she is already punish enough and you will only make it worse.
As a person who has suffered with all of these, your lack of empathy for your child is absolutely shameful and breaks my heart. I would give anything to be “normal” and for you to treat her like she has a choice in how her Brain is made up, makes me feel sad for her. Encourage her to find a trade or job she loves. Support her finding a passion that can be career. Vet tech school, hair stylist, pet sitter…there are many things beyond college that can become successful careers.
Yes your wrong. Sorry 
yes. yes you are. no wonder she doesn’t value your support, it has strings attached. this honestly made me angry lol, you should have already known the answer to this question.
Virtual school is A LOT. And that change is overwhelming for a lot of people. Especially people that have things such as depression, social anxiety, etc. work may be easy for her because she’s used to it. Think back to when she started working or started going to high school, I’m sure it was rough for her. Maybe support her more and ask her what you can do as a team to get her through this last semester. Making her pay back for senior year though is a bit much. She didn’t have to have senior pictures or a class ring, that was something you chose to pay for.
That won’t help the situation and will create a divide in the family. Just help guide her. Seems like she’s really going through a difficult time. Did you put yourself in her shoes? Is it money or your daughter that’s important to you?
You should be threatening, when you turn 18… at that point, legally she’s on her own.
Coming from the standpoint of someone who went undiagnosed with a few of the same issues when I was that age (I wasn’t Dx’d until a year and a half ago and I graduated almost 20 years ago), for sure YTA. My dad and grandmother NEVER did this to me when I was sent to continuation school for my senior year at the last minute! I’m sure they were highly disappointed (which went away when I ended up graduating early), but they never would have made me pay them back for what they shelled out for my senior stuff.
Worry about her mental health and why she is acting out in this way and not worry about her paying you back. She is obviously suffering to not care like this. Seek additional help/therapy
School can be difficult for her especially if she is doing it virtual and giving her an ultimatum may make things worse than they already are. Speaking from experience school was extremely hard with my depression and social anxiety and just because you are treating it that doesn’t make it go away. Work was my outlet and was the only thing that made me feel like I had a purpose at that time in my life. Everyone is different but I know at that age with my own mental health if I was told “graduate or you will be forced to pay me back that money” it would make my mental health a lot worse and graduating wouldn’t even be an option because my grades would’ve slipped further. Change is hard and I think the only way you will ever get through is if you keep letting her know you’re there to support here and help her as best as you can because chances are she already knows how bad it is. She’s needs support over ultimatums in my opinion.
You’re her mother, I understand this last year was hard with the pandemic but as her mom- that’s your job to provide for her.
From experience, those “interventions” feel like attacks to someone who is already feeling inadequate and upset. They’re no help at all especially when those people holding the intervention already state how they feel before hand.
Oh no no no . You are asking for a fall out . And when fall outs happen she will be out of your grasp and I can’t help protect her from her self . Not worth the fight .
Rentals and all aren’t her problem if you needed it for your other daughter your adding more stress with this also y she is depressive the pandemic could of made things worse everyone deals with depression differently even if you and everyone is involve
Your lack of Empathy for your own child is astonishing 
I feel bad for her 
Your child doesn’t owe you anything. You as her parent are supposed to provide for her. It’s ridiculous that you are even asking her to pay you back. Wow.
I would just stress to her that she just needs to graduate. Doesn’t need to get amazing grades she just has to pass. And worry more about her mental health. I took 1 online class a year in high school and I had to really force myself to complete assignments.
So basically her mental health has suffered due to your poor choices and now you expect her to just snap out of it? Take some accountability. Making her pay you back isn’t going to magically change things. Maybe you should try therapy yourself and with her.
It seems like she has been put through a lot emotionally.l and it’s catching up with her. Shag she needs is reassurance and support, not more stress. Money comes and goes but her mental health is what needs to be a priority, not money.
Your child is a CHILD under 18. You don’t get that money back…period. It’s your job as a parent. You could of said no at anytime.
You’re child doesn’t owe you anything. You are the parent and made to provide for your children. On top of her mental health, that’s a no
I can’t believe this is even a question 
I wouldn’t be surprised if your daughter/daughter’s stop talking to you one day.
You’ve listed what she’s been diagnosed with. As an adult, with a mature brain, those are hard battles to fight on a daily. Her maturity is not yet complete while fighting these battles. She was also exposed to an abusive adult figure? She’s endured a lot. She needs loved through her pain right now. Not another obstacle to overcome, I.e., an expectation of money reimbursement. Best of luck to you and your family.
i stg mamas uncut is literally just out here for the drama they approve this shit like they don’t already know 
Yes its wrong to tell her she has to pay u back got her senior year! It is ur legal obligation to get ur children through school you made the choice to spend money on those extra things weather she wanted them or not u choose to pay u could have said no specially if she wasn’t doing what she needs to do… she did not ask to be here on this earth again u made that choice find a more respectful way to teach ur child the value of a dollar.
In my personal opinion, it’s your job to provide for your child. She didn’t ask to be brought into this world. You should provide her with everything she needs for a successful future. You made the choice to have them, be a responsible parent.
You’re a POS parent if you expect your child to pay you back for not performing how you feel they should. Your child does not owe you a dime for raising them. This is an extremely hard situation for all kids and yours has diagnosed mental health issues. Poor kid, tell her if she needs love and support I’m here.
Wow. She doesn’t owe you anything, and needs you to support her. Instead of worrying about money, worry about her mental health.
I started having depression and issues with school after being raped. Are you sure something hasn’t happened to her?
I had severe undiagnosed depression at that age. I went off to college and bombed. I made some horrible decisions and ended up moving back home after the first semester. My parents had taken out a loan for that year of college. They were extremely disappointed and hurt by my actions but not once did they threaten to make me pay them back for the money they spent on my college. Your daughter needs your support and to know that you care about her health more than you care about the money.
How often do you bring up the money you will be out? I’m really just confused by this whole post… her mental health seems like it should more important at this moment than the diploma and the party!
I had a daughter who I worked very hard to keep in school her senior year… she mentioned suicide just once and truthfully the “cost” of her senior “stuff” seemed to be the least of my worries about cost. We worked together to keep her going. If she had decided to get her GED I would have been fine with that.
It’s hard when a child has mental health issues hard on mom and even harder on the child. Too often parents make it about themselves rather than the child!
I think you really need to evaluate what it is you are more concerned about… money for events that everyone sees? Your pride? or your child’s mental health.
We are in the middle of pandemic… there is no normalcy!
… reading through your post your kids seems to have weathered a heck of a lot of trauma… you advised they were strong? WTH its not the kids job to be strong… it’s the adult!!!
read up on ACEs scores… you put them thru a lot. I imagine that the other twin is feeling very pressured also.
I’ll be praying to soften your heart and for your kids to be happy and succeed no matter how they do it.
Right now you should be more concerned about her mental health and stability rather than the money you spent for senior year. Please stop stressing her out more than she already is and TALK to her, try to find out the root cause of her depression and actually help her instead of just medicating her and dropping her off with a therapist
You are a damn POS of a mother! I hope you don’t push your daughter’s in to hurting themselves! Money isn’t everything!
Sounds like she is smart, so it’s not that she cant do what she needs to graduate it’s that she really doesnt want to. Therefore she doesnt care about her life right now. I would be extremely worried. You should definitely be supporting of her and figure out how to help her mental health. I dont money should be a issue rn if it was your choice to spend it on her.
wow she got to pay you back?
Your the parent, you are supposed to provide. She doesn’t owe you anything
She shouldn’t have to pay you back. If she doesn’t graduate just don’t allow her to stay at the school so you don’t have to pay it again.
No she shouldn’t have to pay you back. I went through a hard time during high school because of depression, but my parents didn’t make me pay them back for anything. That’s shitty if you tell her that she owes you x amount of money just because she’s going through a hard time right now. Maybe support her more and be less worried about the money you spent
Actively treating the mental illnesses don’t mean they aren’t there. They are still a struggle even when treated/medicated.
Those are gifts you purchased with the hope of her graduating, it wasn’t a contractual agreement. It was a parent being a cheerleader and supporter of their child’s education. That being said your child is in desperate need of love and support. If you punish her for being depressed and falling behind/not graduating then the failure would be on you, not her. She is an adolescent and needs guidance and not punishment for the financial choices you made.
Yes you’d be an asshole to do this to your child who clearly struggling. Charging her for her senior year will only make things worse
You’re the parent. No matter your own hardship, you provide and help your child through their hardship. Not ask them to pay you back or even think about asking. That’s terrible
If she doesn’t care about graduating she probably could care less about paying you back.
People are being super extra.
Yes, paying back is kind of unreasonable. That wouldn’t be my thought at all to be honest, she’s a minor and messed up. It’s your job to ensure that she does online classes and makes everything up. How could she get back on track? If she was set to graduate then I’m sure she’s not so far behind that this isn’t repairable.
Unpopular opinion in this comment section. You’re feelings are VALID and I’m sure you’re exhausted and feel hopeless.
Counseling for you two perhaps and see how you guys can work together.
Good luck.
You have got to be kidding!!! She is depressed because of you, YOU did this to her. It is not her fault that you chose an asshole over your children. It is your responsibility to care for your kids and provide for them. Your worst fear is going to be if she moves on with her life, and you are not in it. If she has problems now, it is because you had problems then.
Hi! Kid who hates her mom for this type of crap, here.
Please don’t do that. Your daughter may be going through more than you know. Just because you throw therapy and meds at her, doesn’t mean she will improve. She may really have something that is eating at her. This past year has been HORRIBLE for those of us with anxiety, PTSD, and depression… So maybe just be kind and patient and wait for her to speak up and make the change for herself.
Your MINOR CHILD does NOT owe you anything, nor should have to pay you back any money. For doing YOUR job. You didn’t have to pay all that EXTRA money on that stuff, but you did.
Really that’s blackmail and that child is your responsibility till she’s 18 and that means you pay for her school stuff. No wonder she’s depressed between covid and you
Wtf did i just read. Because a summary sounds like and correct me if im wrong…
My daughter is suffering from diagnosed mental disorders and isnt preforming the way i want so i want her to pay me back for the senior year experiences since i was supportive and i dont see why she cant snap out of it because her sister kind of did.
Shes your child… And on top of everything she has disorders that you clearly don’t understand, she’s ADHD so she can’t even concentrate properly her brain is going 1000 timed faster than a “normal” Brian, just sitting would be a major major struggle for her… And U just expect her breaze through it… And then add finical stress on top of school stress, the stress of wanting to be social but can’t and the stress of fighting depression… Worry about her dam it!!
You’re the mom, sounds like you need to grow up…
Really??? Your her parent for goodness sake
Your kid is screaming for help and you are worried about money? Poor kid 
straight up didnt read the test of this. until the child is legally an adult and out of your care she doesnt owe you anything. imo
You’re obligated to pay for her expenses until she is 18 years old. You made that choice when you decided to carry out the pregnancy. No one forced you to spend that much money just for their senior year either don’t be like that. Her mental health is more important than material things. Would I be annoyed, having paid that much for everything and then her potentially not pass? Absolutely, yes. But I wouldn’t expect her to pay me back a dime for it.
Your child doesn’t owe you for the cost of raising them. You owed her a better childhood. You failed. This will affect her the rest of her life. You are not the victim here.
I think you’re making her more depressed.as a parent whether or not our kids failed or made bad decisions especially if that kid is a minor it’s your responsibility to take care of all her needs whether it costed you unnecessary money.it seems as if you’re money hungry.i think you should focus on the little girl mental health that’s what you should be worried about…u didn’t have balls to make your last husband get up and work so that you would be stable but you willing to take advantage of your under age daughter in school…I think you should seek therapy as well cause its clear you missing some screws lady
It may be best to allow her to drop out and get her GED. I wouldnt ask for the money back, as this is a part of her age level and she may just need to be in a more concentrated program. There are also programs to get her high school diploma. Most community colleges offer it for free or very little money. But… asking her for the money back, after you admitted that she has psychological needs is too much.
It would be wrong if you didn’t put conditions on the monies as they were being spent. It would be one thing if you told her “We will pay for A,B,C so long as you do X,Y,Z and if you don’t do it, then you will need to pay us back” but it doesn’t sound like that was the case.
Im sorry but untill your child graduates high school now after if 18 or not… as long as they are still in school… You are responsible for them and anything that has to do with school. Now if it was extra curricular activities, cheer, tennis, dance. Something she chose to be apart of, then that wouldn’t be a difference on asking her to pay you back or atleast work out on paying you back for… her senior year, like prom, senior pictures, class ring those that she chooses to do. Then again maybe talk about ways to pay you back but as far as the whole cap and gown and anything that results in her walking across the stage. Wether or not you paid for it, that’s what she has to have to graduate. Also no matter her work ethics in class or passing to graduate, either way she still worked and spent years to get to that point to walk across that stage
Kick her while she’s down why don’t ya.
Just because she is getting treatment for her mental health doesn’t mean she is doing ok… and because she can get up and go to work doesn’t mean she isn’t struggling. Graduating and the changes it brings can be hard, especially for those already struggling with change and other mental heath issues. Its hard to love and give the proper support to a child who seems not to care but they are probably the ones who care the most. Maybe seek professional help for yourself to know how to best support your daughter during these stressful times for her.
I don’t think it would be right, or even realistic, to want your daughter to pay you back. I think as a parent, we are responsible for food, clothing, shelter, and a public education, at a minimum. If she doesn’t graduate, I would definitely make her go get a job and pay her own way when she turns 18. For right now, she seems to have a lot going on and this school year is rough on everyone, but probably even rougher on kids like her.
With that being said, some of you all are being straight up rude and ignorant in this comment section. Give your opinion like a civil human being and keep it moving.
Children don’t ask to be born. You as the parent should do everything to give them a good life and never ask them to pay you back.
Sounds like she is having a hard time with things. Online school isn’t fot every student.Sound like you need to open your eyes and ears she is dealing with something you might not know if someone personal happened to her.
Ummm really??? She is your child this is what your meant to do!! And not expect a thing back
You would totally be an asshole. Your child is suffering. The fact that you seem more concerned about the money is really sad.
Wow never thought i would ever read something that resembles my mother 
i have twin girls that are both diagnosed with adhd and autism I’ve spent i dont know how much money in therapies so if they don’t perform the way i want them too it’s because they can’t! That does not mean i would ask for them to ever pay me back and honestly all those interventions are shit. You’re the parent you’re suppose advocate for your children. And I’m putting my 2 cents in because i got out of a physically mentally and emotionally abused relationship which is my girls dad! Instead of asking her to pay you back HELP HER! Coming from the mom that took 5 years to get her bachelors degree but i still did
So your gonna solve it by putting her in debt to you? I get its frustrating, however all together she would owe you $3,370 working I assume a part time minimum wage job. All because she is struggling with her mental health and school and her whole normal being turned upside down. Also just based on this, this isn’t real support. Throwing her at a therapist and some meds isn’t a fix all. Maybe try talking to her or being a bit more understanding rather than just piling debit on top of a girl who is already struggling. Also my advice for you is don’t spend money if you expect the child to pay you back. That’s just messed up.
Not a bad parent at all! Seems like you’re doing a good job!! Show them responsibility.
I would like to know how the relationship is between your twin girls
Sounds to me like there would have to be issues as you wouldnt be asking the twin who is set to graduate to pay you back,
How do you think your girl who has depression would be feeling, it would be contributing to her mental health
I wouldn’t ask her for any money back. I would address the fact that she’s going through a rough time. I wouldn’t dish it out for her again to repeat the year though. You get one senior year, if she repeats the year, it’s just to graduate. If she wants to do things like get another year book, go to prom (if they have it) than she has to pay for it. You paid already. I’d be more concerned with the out of character behavior. A lot of times when young girls have sudden changes of personality it’s due to something happening that they didn’t want to happen.
Wtf is a rental for senior week?
Yep, that would definitely make you TA. Your child is experiencing what sounds like a mental health crisis, and your response is to make her pay you for it, basically. As though that’s going to help. 
At this point I think that’s adding to the problem. She already feels like a failure and she can’t do it and to top it off she’s letting all of those people down. She’s shutting down. Forget about graduation and find the root of the problem before it’s too late. Talk to her and try to get it out of her. She already has a bunch of diagnosis’s she battles daily. She’s quitting. She doesn’t care. In her eyes she’s already failed so she’s focusing on what she can control, what she doesn’t feel like she’s failing- work. I’m saying this because that was me at 17-18. She needs to feel that no matter what you will all still be there.
Yes, that is wrong to ask that of your child. Something else …something serious is going on with her focus on that. Love your kid not your husband and the money y’all have. What the actual fuck?
Wtf you are her parent you should support her and she don’t owe you nothing like fr did she ask you to open your legs to come in this world no you did it yourself so the right thing to do is be a parent and support her shit if my kids ever need me real quick I will be there even if there fucking grown they will always be my baby’s I will always and forever have there back till my last day 
she didn’t ask u for that as u said ye felt the need to do all those things.ye are the parents.maybe she can’t keep up maybe everything is on top of her and none of ye see it.goid for her for trying with a job.she owes ye nothing im sorry ye are the parents if she stole it I would of said different but she didn’t.we all have high hopes for our kids but that doesn’t always work sit with her ask her wats wrong ask her does she understand wen she is older getting a job or going to college.or first of is she ok does she need to just talk.
I’ll say it…that’s a shitty thing to do. Mental health is real, and it’s hard. Kick her while she’s down. It’s not her fault you went all out for senior shit. Cancel the rental. I would never make my kid pay me back for taking care of them. Fuck graduation, she can get her ged later. Worry about HER. Not add to whatever has made her feel this way.
really? You know your kid has invisible illnesses. Add a pandemic with zero guidance on it or anything else you want to hit them with paying you back?
First they didn’t ask to be here. You made that choice.
Secondly kids are your responsibility doesn’t matter the age, but the law says 18.
Suck it up
As long as my daughter lives under my roof I will always take care of her in every and any way possible & I would never ask her to pay me back for anything. I would most certainly take a different route. Maybe she needs help & is afraid to ask for it. Virtual is way harder than in person. I did it myself and it sucked, bad. Maybe she needs you to sit with her while she does her school work. No 2 kids are the same, twins or not. They individually have different needs.
You are the one that chose to pay for all of those things. You didn’t set terms before you paid for them. So yes, you would be the bad person for asking her to pay it back. That’s ridiculous and would put a HUGE rift between you two for a very long time, if not for the rest of her life. She will always feel like you put money before her emotions. If she is diagnosed with all of those things, she needs to be in therapy so I hope that is a part of what you’re actively doing to help her. Putting financial strain on her will not help her at all, and it isn’t showing her anything other than you care about money over anything.
I have a senior just like this. The moment they went virtual, he checked out. There’s no structure, there are too many distractions at home. It’s just a struggle for more kids than it works great for.
With that said, Actions have to have consequences. If she has to repeat the year, she doesn’t get to repeat the experiences
But support her through the mental health issues, you may be addressing them, but it’s going to be a lifelong struggle.
Uhh… Well if your child was working she should have been the one to have bought all this.
It sort of sounds like you expect them to be the same people. She has had a traumatic past- her way of dealing is her own you can’t expect it to be same as her sibling.
Maybe she’s fearful for her future right now? And don’t want it to change?
It’s your job as a parent to provide said things for her- laying down more pressure will not help your problem.
Try talking to her and seeing who she TRULY is- not what you expect or painted up of her. Poor girl. Maybe for her and who she is with dealing with all that she’s got going on you could opt for her going for her GED? Then dive into some kind of trade or whatever college course holds her interest? Depression anxiety ptsd and mental health have a huge impact on how we make decisions…
She’s 17 and obviously having a hard time, believe me don’t having a graduation this year in the middle of the pandemic and all of that it’s not that big of a deal, what’s really disappointing its her family trying to force her to pay some money that she isn’t supposed to, you need to take more responsibility of your daughter’s mental health before worrying about school or money, believe me a disturbed child with bad parenting is an inch away of drugs and very very destructive behavior and that’s a BIG NO. So try to change your mindset, let her drop school for a year if she needs to and FOCUS on getting her all the HELP LOVE AND SUPPORT SHE NEEDS! She needs to know that you love her no matter what specially school, you may be worried about her future but without help right now she may not want to have any help from you afterwards. Therapy it’s great but it’s useless without good support at home.
She needs time. …
Back in my dad we called you an Indian giver. That’s your bad for spending all your money on your child. Your kid is struggling with life like we all do sometimes. I’m just assuming that added stress isn’t gonna help anything
This is really heartbreaking…I feel so sorry that poor child has this woman as a mother. They both need help, but that’s so awful for the girl
