<prompt> Human: Hey guys, Im 17 going on 18 and today i found out my mum has caused us to basically be on the brink of eviction and therefore homelessness due to her neglect of bills and rent. I dont know what to do, as I am currently only part-time employed and just beginning to receive government welfare payments Youth Allowance. Should I just up and get out of dodge and find a sharehouse somewhere, or do I try and help my mother through this situation she has put us in?  <response>: What does neglect mean in this instance? Does your mother have the money to pay the bills, but has failed to do so? Or is there no money at all? If the question is about helping your mom got her act together organizationally, I would say that it is a no-brainer. Financially? Harder question, Im afraid.
