Hi there, it’s such an awful situation your stuck between a rock and a hard place. He’s very lucky to have you and he’s father managing he’s finances, it’s good he’s allowing you to do this. I would take him food now and again but would make it very clear it’s not going to be a weekly thing unfortunately it is enabling as anyway they can carry on the addiction without the consequences they will do. Unfortunately until he sees the damage or consequences for himself he will unlikely want to change.

Thank you Redfox20 – Wise words. I had been thinking the same. To take him basic food until he is paid again but make it clear we won’t do it again. He earns more than enough to live on and save to treat his daughter but the drugs are more important to him than her. I know we have to be strong and stick to what we say. It is good he lets us have his money but I feel if he keeps on building up debts the stress of trying to help him manage his money will just be too much for us to take.
