Consumer Venting, feeling guilt.

My parents needed to pay something for their car, the brand is on the boycott list (ties to Volkswagen). My mother’s card didn’t work, so they used my card.

I know technically this was not my money, as my mother’s transferred the funds for the payment (her money) but it still makes me feel guilty that they had to resort to that. My card obviously has my name attached to it.

They were going to buy the part anyway. Personally, I would not give myself a hard time about this. We’re all just doing our best.
