How would you respond to this text
Hey its megan...I was wondering if u can help me out cuz i have 2 pay 4 his circomsition and i dont have it...If u cant i understand i just dont have any1 else to ask.
This was sent to me from a friends pregnant girl. He is incarcerated due to his own ignorance. This is the second time she has asked for money. Me and my wife are college students with 2 kids. How would you respond to this text. Man we struggle to make ends meet. I feel like my kindness is being mistaking for weakness. |
Tell her that her son can always get it removed down the road.
|
A simple no would do it. I've been in your shoes and eventually, I had to let everyone know that "The Bank of Corey" closed. It affected some folks that considered themselves close friends but, when I can barely pay my own bills, I sure can't worry about someone elses!
In short, If they can't get it from the bank or family, it isn't your job to get it for them. |
its not a necessity so tell them to save their favors for something that they may really need in the future
|
you can donate her some of your sc cash
|
What does she look like??

Probably not going to use the money for what she is telling she needs it for.

???? She has to pay in advance?

circumcisions are cosmetic anyways.... they can be done anytime. just easier and less likely for the kid to remember at a young age..... Tell em what you said in your post. you are two people struggling in school with 2 kids. end of discussion.

Outpatient services are a completely different story. |
Let her borrow some scissors. Or set her up on a payment plan. One lump sum paid in full up front!!
I had to do the same thing as Corey a few years ago, now if they need grocery or diaper money, I offer to bring them groceries or diapers and they get pissed. Be careful this doesn't seem too legit, but she may be for real |
Tell Megan to get a job and pick a better man next time.
|
A little SMEGMA never hurt anyone l m f a o :eek:
|
seems like she would qualify for medicade which should cover it
|
A girlfriend of a friend that is in prison( that you dont seem to close to anyway).....And she texts you? Sounds like she is diggin. Prolly textin every contact in her phone.
|
Tell her she's sitting on her payment:)

Louisiana medicaid does not cover circumcision... its cosmetic and considered non-therapeutic.

I ain't very old, but I have become very blunt in my last few years, especially now that I have kids. I would say HELL NO! You need to look out for yourself first and foremost especially since you have kids. You will NEVER EVER EVER get that money back. BUT, in a way if its only $100 or so, it may be a wise investment to give them the money and that way you will likely never see them again;)
|
It cost about 300-400 bucks depending on where you get it done I just paid for mah lil boys a few months ago he was born on Christmas day but I had to pay for it a couple months before...
|
Man if I lent out $ to every mooch that sakes me I'd be broke! I'd make em work for it , tell her to clean your house 2x a week for a month to give your wife a break or something

If you give her money once, she will never stop asking.
Let her go to the boyfriends parents or hers. Not a friend of a friend. |
I'm a Christian, and I like to give, but sometimes the best advice to give someone in need is to tell them to pray or pray with them. I can't tell you how many times God has answered my prayers and provided for me when I trusted in him. Most of the time the answer to my prayers meant an adjustment to my own plans and some discipline to accomplish my needs. I know this takes faith, and some people will believe it or totally try to rely on what they can make happen by manipulating and using people. regardless of what she thinks, she will have to discipline herself to be able to provide for her kid, you helping her out is just enabling her from working or having faith. Harsh truth!

On a serious note, when my son was born he had a plastibell put on. the Dr. put the little cap over his wee-wee stretched the skin over it then tied a string around it. Fell off in about 3 days and only cost $75 |

Tell her to go to EKL in BR. The doctors there do it free.

Let the kid play with it for a few years, then let him decide if he wants to keep it or cut it off.
|
Just tell her there is nothing wrong with a lil ant eater! He will be unique!

Probably got the medical card and we are already paying for the procedure. A simple no I cannot do that right now with o explanation should work.

Thanks for the help guys. Sc rocks. I gre up with this guy. We just took separate paths a several years ago. My wife just looked at me an laughed. I asked her how someone even ask a question like that. She said obviously through a text. Lol. I would help with diapers and groceries but that's about as much as we can do. Once again guys thanks.

Some people just have some nerve. My brother n law did 7 years and when he got out he called my wife and said I'm coming pick up your boat tomorrow so me and some of my friends can go ride! She told him he fell on his damn head and he flew off the handle! He didn't even ask. I know that's a lil off topic but he calls for money all the time.
