I rent an apartment to a woman with a child, conscience does not allow to increase the price

What problems does excessive kindness and compassion for others lead to, and why is it impossible to feel pity for your tenants? That's what the editorial board is about. "Site" He will tell the story of one of the beneficent residents of Moscow.

I have been renting an apartment to the same girl for nine years. Since then, I have never raised my rent. Somehow related already, and her fate is not easy...



She's a very nice girl and a single mother. My daughter reminds me very much of my family. As I imagine that my Nastya could find the same fate, so immediately on the soul becomes muddy.



She moved to the capital from a clogged outback. I wanted to build a career and start my own business. That's not what fate ordered. God gave the child, had to forget about all ambitions and watch the child. No husband, no relatives. Cavalier learned about the pregnancy, so immediately he was sent on a business trip indefinitely. I still haven't heard from you.



A girl who works for everything. As a child in kindergarten, I found two jobs. The light of the white does not see, only knows that at 6 am to run for one shift and at night from the second returns.



I wouldn't bother her, but I'm eating myself. There was no such thing for a long time. This apartment is my only source of income.



My daughter insists on me talking to my tenant. Explain, they say, the situation, tell us how difficult it is, perhaps, and would agree on a price convenient for both parties. And I listen to her, I know she's right, but I can't make up my mind. I feel responsible for this family as for my family. I don’t want them to create more problems...



This is what emotional throwing sometimes leads to excessive kindness and compassion for others. Of course, you need to take care of your neighbor when you have the opportunity. But is it worth sacrificing your own well-being in the name of helping someone else? I think in this situation it is completely unjustified. What do you think?
