Hi my angel,
Gosh Karen, why do people keep using you? no one helps but they all seem to have their hand out.
If it where me i would never sign anyone up to a credit card under my name, that would mean i was liable for their card and could land into a lot of legal trouble.
second point is if a family member got themselves into money troubles, it is up to them to get themselves out, i would help with food, emergencies, etc, but would not pay their bills.
Karen, i do hope this helps, you have so many problems to deal with of your own, you don't need someone elses problems. not to mention if you go down this road it will cost you a lot of money, and you really need to look after yourself and the girls.
Maybe offer to pay for a financial councillor for her if she so chooses, so she can get her spending under control and help to manage her money better.
Karen, it seems to me your mother and sister are using you for your money and nothing more. please be careful the money you have has to last you and the girls for the rest of your life, i have been in a situation of nearly being homeless from having used all my mothers savings, it goes so quickly, please be careful and think long and hard before making a decision.
I know the choice is going to be difficult, and you really should not have this pressure on you right now, my thoughts and well wishes go out to you my friend, family can be tough to deal with at times.
good luck my friend. hugs
Jacques

Yes KAren, she does need to learn to manage money and get her priorities right, she sounds very immature, and if she is partying that can't be good for her child either.
Oh Karen, that is terrible she is putting you under so much pressure, you need less stress in your life, not more, and Karen she should never abuse you, you should not tollerate that sort of treatment, i understand why you have such a low opinion of yourself, your family are not nice people, from what you have otld me they seem to use and abuse you, not much better than your husband. if you got even a fraction of support from them i am sure you would be in a lot better place mentally with just a little support.
Gosh Karen, i really feel for you, it is a very unpleasent environment you have around you, it is affecting your MH and you girls too.
Karen, i will say it again youo need to put yourself and the girls first, any money you have will not last forever, and i know from experiance when it is gone, life gets very hard to deal with. i never want to see you in my situation of nearly being homeless.
I wish i could support and guide you better. you are so worth it, you are a wonderful person Karen, i hope i have not been to harsh on your family, i just wish they supported you more.
Hugs my sweet angel
Jacques
