Things like this breaks my heart. I wish I could help you take care of your daughter until you are ready to get her. You don't have other siblings that could help you take care of your daughter outside that friend. I want to believe you know your friend, and you know what she is capable of. How come your sister wants to make you shoulder all of their responsibilities even though she is married. |

Chidiesta:U are not being nice bt rather encouraging irresponsibility. The big question is why can't she take care of her own family?? People should learn to be responsible for their families and cut their coat according to their material. How can u be paying school fees for her kid and its more the ur kids school fees? isn't she earning an income? if so what is she doing with it? Let her know this the the only amount u can afford to give her and after that nothing more will come from ur end untill next year or whichever timeliness u set for them for ur convenience and sanity. This will help them adjust the mindset to what they can afford only. Here is the shocker if anything happens to u or ur finances Godforbid they will move on and they might not treat u or ur kids like u would expect. be nice bt be wise! |

You see many Nigerians are greedy and they will be shouting leader. There are are many friends that are even better than blood relations, if your friend is one of them, Congratulations. You can tell your friend to help you search for an affordable boarding school that is safe for that girl, it will just be like she's helping you to change her school. That way your sister will not see it as she is taking the child from her. From there put all the girl monitor and school cater to her care. Because, I believe your sister should help you to grow and since she refused to, tactically withdraw from her too. I believe her children have father that should cater for their needs in combination with whatever you send to her. |

07kjb:I have nothing more than this to say. Even if all my family members are mad and roaming on the streets, we roam together. Family above everything. |

07kjb:Bros some blood relationship is better to avoid them completely, this is just one of them. |

Chidiesta:Take your daughter away from her. Before it turns into something else. Why can't your daughter relocate to meet you? |

Chidiesta:Sometimes you just have to follow your instincts |

Chidiesta:Your sister is just envious of you and she is presently taking your daughter hostage for ransom. If you are sure of your friend's intention, I will say you should find out from your daughter if she is willing to stay with her and then proceed on the plan. Alternatively, out your daughter in a good burden school here while your friend only help you visit her and take her home for holidays pending when you are buoyant enough to move her to your base. Lest I forget, what about her dad or his relatives? |

SocialJustice:She said earlier she doesn't have papers yet and she is going through a lot to raise the money the sister keep siphoning |

07kjb:which kind mentality is that? NEVER CUT FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS...see his sister get husband and the husband should pay for school fee and op should just support a little he can. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by dfrost: 2:58pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
imasong005:She needs to sit down and have a long conversation with her sister. Family remains family. They just need to talk. She needs to appeal to her human nature. It is wrong to cut ties with family. Trust me, it's not good. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by bolabadmus38: 2:58pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Look for a boarding school for her. Tell your sister things are a little bit down there.....but you can still assist her within your capabilities. Plan to relocate your daughter to join you without her knowing. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by dfrost: 2:58pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
seunak2016:Agreed. |

Chidiesta:My brother find an alternate arrangement and just keep praying for your kids…she sees you as an ATM and her greed can’t let her think about the future…she is 100% in it for what she can get now…not what she can get in the future…for her your kids are welcome to come investment… I live in the USA…I know that taking care of family abroad and doing so back home is not funny…they will just set you up to work yourself to sickness… Apply wisdom and handle the situation in a way that will protect your kids: |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by meetme01: 2:59pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:Thread carefully. Restrategize bro. Put up a fake story that will look as if it will take a very long time before you can send money home except she wants you back home. Let her understand that the little you can get through, she should manage judiciously. If possible, change your number for sometime. She would sit up.. |

07kjb:Blood never do you something before that's why . @ op please if you trust your friend, Let her take your daughter from your sister. it's obvious she's also maltreating the poor girl, i don't see a reason she doesn't want you to talk to your daughter on video call. please act fast for the sake of the little girl. i know what i passed through in the hands of My mother's sister growing up, it took me years to really forgive her from my heart |

chaiii. some people can be so greedy. such a greedy sister. |

Chidiesta:first your daughter is not save in your sister hand. And this is difficult to say because the friend own too might be worse. Look for someone neutral to search for a burden school. Let your daughter be there pending when you will be stable to take her with you. Note nobody can ever like your child like you do. People don't care what you are passing through. They only want exploit you. |

Chidiesta:There is a very standard Christian school I can recommend to you where your 8 year old can be. Well taken care of. You will never regret it if you put your child there. |

| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by seunak2016: 3:02pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:I use God beg you please take your child away from your sister and find someone you can trust a little to look after her. please don't be afraid as some family can't be pleased. God forbid bad thing, if something happened to you and your child is with your aunt, your child will suffer and your sister is an INGRATE who will never remember your good deeds. even if na your sister send you abroad or raise you while you are young, it doesn't mean she should be doing like that. your sister husband should pay for the school fee not you |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by morinto: 3:02pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:I understand. Even though am not in your shoes but I lived in the UK and most people in Nigeria think we are rich and abroad have a tree to pluck money. So everyone want to drain you. Taking your child to Germany is a good idea because your sister might not be giving her the proper love even though she is going to a good school. Your visa suppose to cover for your daughter because mine can cover for my wife and daughter even though am not married. Just be wise my dear in sending money and try to take your daughter to Germany to get the love from u |

Some family members are not worthy to be called a family. I have had this kinda of experience but in a different scenario. Please take your daughter away from her. She's using your daughter to cash out from you, and that's very selfish and inconsiderate of her. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by SmartyPants(m): 3:02pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
07kjb:Where is the good relationship?? Family is not always about blood. Dont use your good family experience to judge another man's own. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by pocohantas(f): 3:03pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Omoluabi16:You never see anything. The best thing is for the OP to take her child with her or enroll the child in a good boarding house. If she fails to act fast, she would lose the motherly influence and deep connection with that child. She should better act fast. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by Nobody: 3:03pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:if ur own sister is behaving like this, do u think someone dat u claim t be ur "friend is better? someone that is not related to u, omo let me tell u, the best attitude u can ever get is from ur own family, Both u and ur sis, need to trash this out, the economy is hard and is also hard for u, besides where's the husband of ur sis in all this, abi is she a single mother, if she is then both of u should reach a compromise, No body would ever take care of ur child like ur own sister, even if she maltreats them, is nothing compared to wat ur so called friend would do, if u think ur own sis is a cash cow go ahead and give ur child to ur friend, abi u want the husband of ur fiend 2 rape d child continously, if it happens do u think ur friend would av d conscience to tell u, when ur friend and ur daughter is walking in d Road, she might easily forget ur daughter in d bus and go down cos she no get value 4 ur girl, she only realizes when she gets t work that she left ur girl in d bus, u would hear eweeeo! Leave ur daughter with ur sis and let both of u talk and reach a compromise, she should be willing to take her own children to lesser schools, ration food, cut down on luxuries, basic necessity are Food, clothing, Home and water, education for a child another is luxury |
