I'm 17 with paid college courses. My mom just divorced my dad in 2017 and we moved into this apartment, and were living paycheck to paycheck. My mom broke her leg and was unable to work for about 3-4 months, leaving us behind in rent. I've been looking for a job and found one that I unfortunately can only work two days and am unable to really help out. I love my mom but she doesn't make the best financial decisions. She buys a brand new 2018 car while behind on rent, and she gets mad at me when I tell her we're buying more food than we need. We're already on food stamps as her income is below the poverty line. I'm at a complete loss on what to do because this isn't something I can fix. I'm so worried about my little sister.
My dad is abusive and we cut all contact with him and his family. My mom's side family are all in Japan, and are unable to help. My older sister is just 19 and is not financially stable enough to aid us.
Please, I don't know what to do or if I can help.
