[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eh I get it OP. I wouldn't attend a shower for a mother in such a position. If it was family I would send a blanket or something useful for the baby. Diapers, zip up onesies, etc. [/quote] This PP and the OP are terrible people. I can't even.[/quote] Why enable? I have a family member like this. She's always asking other family members for money. They feel guilty and bad for the kids so they support her lazy self. [/quote] Well, first of all I'd consider if they actually really need the money, because they might. People without the skill sets that some of us are blessed with don't always know how to make a better life for themselves on limited resources. Second, I wouldn't just give money, but offer assistance with paying utilities, offer to go with them to buy groceries, school supplies, etc. Those are things that help the kids. [/quote]
