<prompt> Human: Here is the back story. I wish I had numbers and specifics for you guys, but unfortunately Im not privy to that information.Girlfriend currently lives with her Mother and Father. Her mom and dad are in a terrible financial state. Shes talked about bill collectors calling, debt, and the possibility of them declaring bankruptcy. Her mom and dad work, but obviously its not enough. Her mother has asked her to rent a home under her name so the family can move in. My girlfriend doesnt make enough money to pay that rent on her own and while her mom probably has the best intentions, she is really just trying to use my girlfriend as a tool for her credit. Its an act of desperation. Not to mention that my girlfriend is going to move in with me next year after I transfer, and the idea of her having her name on two rental agreements, one which may or may not have steady payments, doesnt sit well with me.Reddit, this is over my head. Im in the military and know how to keep my simple personal finances in order, but I know next to nothing when it comes to this. What Im asking for is what is the best resource for financial advice for them? They believe they are on their own with no help. Is there a company, organization, help line, website, ancient tome, or anything that can help them through their situation?Edit: Thanks everyone, I appreciate the feedback. I wish I could tell you the source of their problem, but I dont think even my girlfriend knows. I just cant imagine having to go up to my obviously financially desperate mother and turn her down. There is a lot of guilt to have to fight through. In reality, I think she just needs to move out, which we are working on. Im just looking for alternatives she can suggest, but as bor3143 said, if they dont want help itll probably do no good.  <response>: They shouldnt spread this financial meltdown to their daughter. If they are really this bad off they should file bankruptcy.
