Sorry, I have had to name-change as username was too recognisable.
Basically my daughter (16) went to live with my sister in August. There were loads of problems at home and sister offered so she went. We are very grateful for that.
Anyway we give her the child benefit we receieve for DD but she is constantly asking for more money.
First it was that DD had decided to join college so sister asked us for the admin fee and some money for uniform she needed. This came to nearly £100. I gave her it but reminded her that we couldn't keep shelling out £100 here and there, I still have a DD at home to support.
Next thing was that DD had decided to join army cadets so sister was on the phone asking for money for stuff she needed for that. This time it was £20. I told her she had the child benefit and she said I was being selfish.
After that it was a trip DD was going on, sister wanted us to pay for that. I said no.
Thing is it is my sister that is getting her into all these things and she then expects us to pay for it all. I have another daughter at home to current DH and just can't afford what she is asking for every 5 minutes.
AIBU?

To wish Sister would stop harrassing us for money?
