DH's ex wife rang to ask for money again this weekend. It is for DSS's prom. There's no question of DH paying for this, as he did for DSD, although things are tighter for us financially now.
However, his ex was yet again saying how she didn't have any money. She does this often and asks for extra things for DSS, which DH always gives if he can but this sometimes leaves us short.
Obviously no one wants to see DSS lose out, but last year DH's ex rang him begging for money to pay her mortgage. She was in arrears and they were apparently threatening repossession. There was no way we were in a position to pay it even if we wanted to. The next thing she'd booked a long haul holiday, on her credit card apparently, leaving DSS with his Grandmother.
Recently she has bought a new car and when she had an accident in it rang DH saying she couldn't afford the insurance excess.
AIBU to be pissed off that we have to struggle financially because she cannot be sensible with money and be sick of hearing how she has no money, needs help etc and then hearing about her next holiday or big purchase?
