Can I trust lending her money?

My daughter is always asking for money - for this and that - always an excuse. Am I enabling her by giving it to her? I worry if I dont she will get into trouble.

It is difficult because you dont know what she is using it for. Perhaps instead of giving her the cash direct you can buy or pay for what she needs directly. That way you know where the money is going and you don't have to feel bad

Does she stay with you? If not then I suppose it makes it a lot more difficult to know where the money goes. It is a shame you are being out into that kind of situation.
