Just sad....and drunk

[drunkmomandsad]

Mom to 4, currently home alone with 3 dc.
My family have just said no to helping us financially to move, this was our last option really. Just feel incredible sad and gutted

I'm guessing this whole thread is madeup though.

6 people in a 4 bedroom house?

Dry your eyes !

TBH I think you just need to get a grip and a bit of perspective. You have a 4 bedroom house that you own. Not ideal but it's not like there's 5 of you in one room like a lot of people live around the world

I sometimes wonder if the British obsession with property, the tv programmes, the magazines, the news etc is blinkering us a bit to what is important or even realistic. It’s come to something when people feel a sense of failure if everyone in a family of 6 doesn’t have a bedroom, plus a spare. But the OP is not alone. There’s so much self image and self worth invested in property.

Cry me a fucking river

If he's only earning £4 an hour how are you going to foot the extra bills that a 7-bed as opposed to a 4-bed costs?? It sounds like they are the only ones with their heads screwed on! Sober up and look after the kids.

Jesus wept. Do you know how fortunate you are? Your parents have no obligation to help you. You are an adult who should stand on her own two feet rather than expecting help to buy a 7 bedroom house. You need to get over yourself ffs. This has made me so cross. And stop getting drunk and maudlin with your kids in the house too
At least wait until they are in bed

I can't afford a 7 bedroom house either.

Alcohol does not mix well with depression & anxiety meds. And you should not be drunk in charge of young children.
I can't have children, if I could I would never get drunk with them in my care! None of my friends with young children do this!
If this is a regular occurrence then you need help & I don't mean financial.

Odd thread

Bollocks thread

If this post had been about 3 kids rather than 4 I reckon I know you. I'm wondering if it's a red herring and you do only have 3

It is a 7 bed, would allow them to stay including my siblings x

I'll agree with anyone feeling sorry for themselves when things aren't working out for them but this has got to be a piss take.

It’s not your last option. Your other option is to stay where you are and live within your means 🤷‍♀️

Surely this is a wind-up thread. It must be 😕

Well, the OP did say in the first post that they were DIC of three kids. I have to say I wonder where's t'other.

I think it's a wind up thread too 😂

.Are your diamond shoes pinching a little, too?
😂😂🙄
I've been shielding since March,I was diagnosed with cancer during lockdown and I live in 1 room in my mum's house. Do I win? I think you need to think about what you have, not what you don't have.

This, with bells on. YABU. Hugely so. Perhaps when you sober up and read this back, you’ll see.

This. Must be a wind up.

Imagine the level of selfish you'd have to be in real life to want your parents to risk their financial security when a bank has deemed you too high risk to fund a seven bed home. Shockingly, with OP's 20 hours pw, her DH's £4 ph and tax credits.

Give over. You were quite convincing until the seven bedrooms post.

Nope, I'm reporting. Don't buy it.

You are married. All assets of the marriage are owned equally, including the house. Your parents and siblings can stay in an airbnb if they come to visit.
You need to stop drinking, have a coffee/or go to bed.
Children can share. Most do.

I would completely out myself if i gave my whole back story. I am not entitled, nor wear diamond fucking shoes.
Surely if you had a choice, you would want a better life for your kids? Room to run and let off steam etc?

Dh has a clause in the deeds that makes him entitled to a certain amount of money if we sold the house
