It's a fast way to learn how to manage your money and to live within your means!!!

You are right, Diana! I'm sure you know when to help out and when to let them figure it out for themselves. It is an invaluable lesson, and luckily, they have you and Glen to get their backs if they really fall down.
At this point, I don't really need to get involved with Jessie and Steve financially.
It is a relief! I cannot imagine how they do it. Steve has not worked in so long, but they made money from breeding the dogs, and now Steve is fixing up my ex husband'[s house, so I guess they can manage. I don't ask any questions. I guess they learned how to deal with money. They do owe me $500. I am keeping it as a loan, although I could go either way. I think it is best to let them think they owe it to me. You think I'll ever be repaid?
