I'm guessing her letter will go somewhere like THIS :
"Dear Ashley,
I know you are bored in there, and you want to make calls, but unfortunately I can no longer afford to keep paying for these calls, nor can I afford to keep putting money on your books for potato chips and candy.
you are 33 years old. It's not like you are 9 years old anymore.. you became an adult 15 years ago, but you have managed to continue manipulating me into letting you take advantage of me.
You had an entire year to prepare for your upcoming jail sentence, and you could have easily found a part-time job and saved up the money so you could afford potato chips and candy right now.
You put yourself into this situation, put yourself in jail by making stupid decisions. I'm not the reason you're in jail, and I'm not the one who's going to pay for your phone calls and potato chips anymore.
you are simply going to have to learn how to get by without potato chips and candy.
Enclosed, you will find three postage stamps. From now on, if you have anything to ask me, you can write it in a letter and mail it to me.
if you write me begging for more money on your books, I'm afraid you'll be wasting your time.
I cannot, and WILL NOT be putting any more money on your books...
maybe, if I can afford it, I might put $10 on your account for your birthday next year, but that's still 8 months away.
until then, do not try calling the house collect again, or I will be forced to change my phone number.
Ashley, I am disgusted with you, and I regret ever giving birth to you. My life would have been so much easier if you were never born.
This is a good time for you to start making plans for what you intend to do when you finally get out of jail next year.
I am moving paying tenants into the basement downstairs, to help offset the costs of living, so you won't be allowed to come back to my house when you get out of jail next September.
You need to start making a plan for yourself, and I would suggest you begin at the Salvation Army women's shelter.
please STOP CONTACTING ME, or I will have no choice but to take out a restraining order against you.
