This is the discussion me and my friends are having. According to them, I'm not allowed to give my mum $50 out of my hard earned money to help her visit her parents. My grandad is dying, and lets admit... my nan ain't getting younger, so I told her "If it goes to your trip, I'd be happy to send you". My friends say "Get a loan" My mum can't afford a loan and no matter how hard I try to get it accross, they don't like it. SOOOO People of KHV-Land. What is your opinion... are my most of my friends selfish jerks who just want me to spend my money on shopping trips? Or are they right?
If someone's dying, I think it would be the proper thing to do by spending as much time with the person. In this case, I would suggest visiting your grandpa. << Anything else can come after...
her pay me back HAH lol sorry, she doesn't like to owe, so i'm not letting her pay me back. This is my prezzie to her XD i hate people owing me too
Even so, you should still do it. She should be there for her father's final moments. I am correct in assuming it's her father, right?
I say send her. Your friends can't control your life. If they don't like your decisions then they can go to another person to pester
To hell with those selfish little *****es you call friends... If your mum wants to visit a dying family member, let them... If i was you, i'd be giving as much of my money as i could...
Nah, you did a good thing ^^ It's $50 to spend on seeing your dying family member or using it for shopping. Seeing your family is so much more improtant, cause unlike the clothes and other items you can spend on their the only one's you've got. Irreplaceable unlike an old shirt and a new one.
As I said earlier in the Cookie Castle, you should always put your family before your friends, especially when a family member is dying. I think you're an awesome person who has her priorities straight, and if your friends don't see that, then they don't deserve you.
and like i said i the cookie castle... i have lost a lot of friends last year.. those people were some of them
If the money is goin to a good cause, then I would do it...If its so your grandad can buy a lot of beer? not so good.
Just think of all of the money she's spent on you, and all of the sacrifices she had to make for you... $50 isn't a lot in comparison to the hundreds that she spent feeding and clothing you. Lend her the money, especially if it is for a good cause.
I'd probably pay money to help out my mom to see someone who's dying. I would not really question the option in the end and would just do it if it was possible. I've helped on other things like bills before, knowing I contributed to those bills existing and money was tight. In the end, I'd say your friends aren't very understanding of what the real world is like and that money can be hard to come by. It's a nice gesture to try and if she accepts, I see no reason why not to do it.
Those friends of yours don't seem much like friends to me, what sort of friends wouldnt let you do that for?. It is your choice to what you decide to do. Its only $50 dollars, really its not that much to pay your mum to go visit a dying family member.
I wouldnt even think about it. She's your mom, she's family. Screw your friends. If they only care about spending your money, they're probably not even your friends at all. It shows how they are using you and are ignorant of the fact that money doesnt grow on trees and that the world doesnt rotate around them.
She's your mom, she took care of you, I definitely think you should give her the money. It's not that much and if it's to see someone dying it's worth it.
Your friends are wrong. I would give her the money if her father is dying. That would be the most compassionate choice.
