It's fine.
First off, she got into a car accident many years ago which caused her to have migraines. Second, she is diagnosed with depression, an underactive thyroid, arthritis and a plethora of other ailments.
She has no friends outside of the home. She spends most of her day sleeping, smoking, eating junk food and watching TV. We have coerced her often to leave the house and participate in recreational activities and she did once or twice but made up excuses not to leave the house and we have to give in.
She has a very negative and uh... depressive attitude but her family says she has been that way her whole life. Spending money is really all she has to make her happy. Nothing we do helps her and she gets angry at any doctor that tells her that she needs to stop smoking and start eating better and exercising.
Are my Mom's spending habits normal and should I give her my money?
