credit cards,i only live on social security,,,,,,,,,,,,,what legal steps can I take,,,,,,,i signed for 2 cars and a house,,,,,,,,,,,,,their filing bankrubsy,,,,,and making good money now please help joan
I am so sorry for your daughter's behavior! It sounds shameful. What reason do they give for not repaying? After they declare bankruptcy, are you still responsible for the two cars and house?
If you are over 65, maybe you can report them to the police for financial elder abuse. Some Area Agencies on Aging, a county agency, have access to an elder lawyer. If I were you, I would go to a lawyer first, before the police, because that will probably end any relationship between you. A last resort would be for you to declare bankruptcy yourself to get the debts off your shoulders.
My expierance is that giving them the use of your credit card only feeds a problem they have to work out on thier own. Giving money to some one unable to manage thier own financies is only reforcing them not living with in thier means. If it was me I would support them with love and not money.
