To be annoyed at this

I know it's not a massive deal but it's really starting to piss me off.

DH family I feel are just too overly dependent for every thing and avoid paying for anything. I won't go anymore into detail.

I can't help but feel annoyed that they even use our account Netflix, YouTube, prime etc and his sibling kid has to have their own account everywhere I click and I don't know why but it really bothers me. I've suggested making a guest account and anyone who uses can watch there but something just ticks me off when I see their name next to mine, my kids & DH. The kids calls my DH to pay for films on prime and I just feel like saying why can't your own parent pay for it since they spend most of their time clubbing I'm sure they can afford a film but they think it's better to expense us.

Anyhoo that's me and my rant...

I'm sure I'll get a lot of criticism but just felt the need to let off some steam..

Same thing with Amazon, I have my own Amazon prime but they will call my DH and ask if they can order something so it can come quick but then don't pay for the actual order.

They need to pay for their own stuff. Say, ‘fine-happy to order it, here’s my bank details. I’ll order it when you transfer the money.’

I wouldn’t be paying for additional films on Amazon either.

you say it’s your Prime account?!

I'd have changed the passwords a long time ago. 😁
DP has a sibling who has money, would just rather waste it and have other people subsidise them. We always say no, as do most of the family, as if you agree to one thing you'll be bombarded by them (even down to waiting until they're at other people's houses to charge their phone using their electricity - it really is that bad!).

There is no way I’d be paying for anyone else to watch a film.
We pay for prime and dh’s mother uses it. If I want to listen to music via Alexa it will often say it’s streaming on her device, I always cancel her device and stream from mine. I don’t mind her using it but not at my detriment.
