EVerything in writing... that's what I'm trying to do, asking for the statement, and evidence of a returned check. I agree it's the only way I can be completely sure of the entire situation. My friend seems to think that they don't owe that much and that if I DO come up with the cash, maybe half will go towards the actual house, and the rest for funtime or something, which is entirely possible.

Shakran is right, I would never turn my family over to a collection agency, but at the same time, I wouldn't be too happy on getting stuck paying a loan back either. Who would?

I too got myself in trouble when I was younger, thinking "oh I can afford that", when reality was a different story. BUT, I did work at it myself to get back to where I wanted to be, and it just blows my mind that after all these years, my mom still hasn't "caught on" to handling income.

I'm just upset at myself too, because I'm just now beginning to see the pattern that's been there since the early days of my youth.

Thanks for your replies! I appreciate them. I am very leary about doing this, and I'm going sometime today to speak with their attorney about the situation.

I'll post what I find out.
