Hi Di
You said..... "Thank you for all the advice. I have taken control of ALL finances, set a budget and will give my husband just some general living money ie Bus fare . Is this a good thing or am I treating him too much like a child???????"
Yes...you are treating him like a child... But believe me, you need to.
I gave control of my finances away for 12 months....I was given a monthly allowance only.
It is one of the better ways to help ensure we do not gamble if the urge hits us.
Re your daughter....I am no where near qualified in that regard to offer any advice.
I guess depending how mature she is for her age would be a factor for you to consider though...
However I think that is a question for a professional counsellor to answer.
Best wishes again
Roy
