(there is no way on this earth i will get rid of my pet - therefore dont suggest getting rid of her please/thankyou.)a friend from college is a year older than me and doesnt work at all and he is managing to pay his full rent and bills.please help me as i am getting seriously close to wanting to be held responsible for the death of my grans 'husband'...thankyou!

wot u can do if u desparatly want out then i agree with aunty bimbim but heres another option. try and get a council flat or house and get into contact with a connections advisor and talk about benefits to help with ur living fee. be aware that u may find it difficult to find a council house that will take in animals but there will be one somewhere. good luck xx

 hah! its easy to see why your Grandmother's new husband might be having a problem or two with you
you want a flat of your own but you dont want to pay for it
you want to know how to get money for utilities but dont mention actually working for it
you also want to be given money to feed your dog
go talk to a college/uni/school counsellor, tell them you need to study part time because you now find yourself in a position where you need to work to support yourself
and then see what happens. if that is too hard you will need to apologise to Granny and Granpa for your previous bad sulky spoilt brat behaviour, thank then for their continued support of you throughout your studies, and in return for their continued support offer to help them on weekends and evenings by taking on some of the household chores.

 I would imagine that they are none too thrilled either about having you living with them and impinging on their privacy...What about your student loans? Aren't those meant to cover tour living costs whilst at university?
