Creditor Calling

So you filed bankruptcy and didn't tell your own mother that you were going to include her???? If I were your mom, I'd be furious too! However, given the information you've shared so far, it's doubtful she can do anything to stop your bankruptcy.

You only have one mom. If you want a relationship with her in the future and for your someday-children to know their grandma, I'd call her, apologize profusely, and offer to set up a payment plan to pay her back after your bankruptcy is discharged and closed.

Great advice, lrprn, I totally agree.

If your mom is anything like my mom then she deserves it. LOL She cant do anything to stop your bankruptcy. She will be treated like any other creditor. She will eventually get over it just ignore her.

That would be just like BOA or Chase calling and trying to stop the BK because they didn't like it...lol. She cannot stop anything! All of our situations here are different and I am sure you had very good reason's for not telling her. Like it or not she is a creditor. We all have different circumstances. I included my mother on my BK also, but she knew it ahead of time and was in agreement. It was a large sum of money and wanted to be able to show it as a loss on her financial records properly so my BK was a way to properly document that loss for her.
