<prompt> Human: Im scared because we filed bankruptcy chapter 13 and have no credit cards and barely get by now. I am on disability and my wifes work was bought out and they changed her to salaried and no cashing in of vacation days. So we have no way of getting extra money if we run short. Our son has been in a private high school for the past three years that costs 581 via FACTS. We need Internet to communicate with the school and use their web site. Our son wants to go to a public school that is a technical school to save the 581 a month to spend on other things. But my wife refuses to let him. Im scared that we might miss a payment and then he cant go to the private school anymore if we have extra expenses and cant cover everything. Im too sick to do freelance work and not medically cleared to work. If I earn money and work I get kicked off disability. I dont want to lose the house, my mother is staying with us until her house gets fixed due to flooding. We already got stuff in the house we cant afford to fix like a light in the kitchen. My brother-in-law lives in our basement and paying off debt so he cant give us any money. My mother is on oxygen and doesnt have much money either. If we lose the house we all get kicked out. For my mother that is very bad, shes 78. I feel this is an impossible situation and my wife thinks that God will provide for us, but I think we need to manage our money better and cut back on spending. I would cut Cable TV but my mother watches old movies on it and does nothing else. Id cancel the cell phones but we use them for GPS and other things and in case we lose access to Internet accounts. My wife uses Line to talk to her family in Thailand to save on phone costs. LD charges would be more than the cell phone bill. Assistant: There was not a single question in your post. What did you want addressed specifically?Human: I want to know how to budget money better. How to convince my wife to let our son go to a public school to save money.Assistant: This isnt a personal finance question with is a marriage and relationship question. Human: It is really hard to stick to a budget when the wife wont cooperate. It is really hard to cut out money from the budget when the wife doesnt want to do so.  <response>: rrelationships
