Negotiating Options for my Mother's Monthly Allowance

Tweet

Since I got married, I've been providing for my mother's financial needs, because she has no other source of income, and she'd be too old to work. However, I've stopped working since end of last year, and would have to think of other ways to continue providing for her. Recently, I also gave her a small capital for a small business, where she could get some profit for her savings for emergency use. Before I left work, however, I have saved some amount enough to cover her allowance for the whole of 2012. I plan to get an online job, to have my own earnings, and have the capacity to continue supporting my mother. It's already the middle of the year, and I'm still not comfortable getting a full time online job, while taking care of my newborn. And, I may even need until middle of next year to start working. So, I've thought of asking for her cooperation and proposed to reduce the amount I give her every month, so that the balance left could still sustain till May or June of next year. And, she could temporarily use her profit from the business to help sustain her monthly needs. I hope she understands my intention, and not think of any negative thoughts out of it. Afterall, this will only be until I find another source just to be able to provide for her.
