When my mom gets paid, her boyfriend shows up?

Everytime my mother gets paid, her annoying, whining boyfriend shows up. When she wants to do things, he always beg her to help with his needs. There’s bills and groceries that needs to put in the house. My mother is a single parent and when she doesn’t have the money to pay her bills. She blames us or that she spend all the money on groceries and the light bill, that ain’t that much. She makes a lot of money. She paid off the rent already. Where all the money goes? That my question? The groceries in the house is for our use not the boyfriend. Her boyfriend comes visit one or twice a week. To get his hair done and to wash his 2 piece clothes. Then he makes my mom cook him something to eat from our fridge. She doesn’t cook 4 the family. She only cooks 4 him and his lunch 4 work. Now is that fair.

Answer #1

No its not, sit you mum down and explain how you feel dont get angry with her and make sure its just you and her at home :)

Answer #2

The one statement that you should never ever use in an argument is ‘that’s not fair’. Because the only response you’re going to get is that life is not fair. You also cannot question what your mother does with HER money. She feeds you, she shelters you. The rest of it, she can do what she darn well pleases. Also not an approach I’d take if you plan on getting anywhere. The only case you have here is the fact that you feel neglected because she does not cook for you. So talk to her about that. But really, your mother is an adult. And you can express your concerns about her being taken advantage of, but I would put it so it does not come off as you know how to take care of her money better than she does.

Answer #3

well if she doesnt feed you adn feeds her boyufriend than thts pretty bad you dshould tlk to her bout it tell her what shes doin if that doesnt work tlk to the boyfriend and if her boyfriend is makin complications in your lives then he shouldnt b there. (like if hes makin bad complications…like how you said you guys have no money because of her spendin it on him) my dad did the same thing with my big sis just show him hes not welcome he’ll either stop or leave,
