My Single Mom Life

Ever since my old neighbors moved back in, we've been having problems with the plumbing and septic system again.
They keep plugging up the toilet, and this causes our toilet to back up and overflow into the house.
Tonight, well last night, they plugged up their toilet and it overflowed, this caused my back bathroom and bedroom to flood because it was their back bathroom that was plugged up and overflowing, and it also caused my main bathroom toilet to back up and start to overflow.
The teens quickly helped me take care of it, soaking up the water with towels and mops, but ugh!
So damn frustrating!
They've only been moved back in a short time now, like a little less than three months, and in just that short amount of time, they have caused this to happen at least a dozen times!
I am getting so tired of having to plunge our toilet, soak up water, and run laundry.
I have warned them repeatedly that it's septic, that when it rains heavy, like it does every single day in the summer for at least 20 minutes, that you have to be super careful flushing the toilets because the ground gets too saturated and the drain field can't take the pressure.
They simply do not listen!

But oh, she'll listen if it's something that's super important to her like me helping her understand her disability insurance paperwork and helping her fill it all out correctly every time they send her stuff to fill out.
I'm the one she came to for help when she was applying for disability, I'm the one who told her how it works, how they deny everybody just to see who is really serious and who isn't.
I'm the one who helped her through the appeals process and all of it, she listens so attentively when it's something like that, but when it comes to flooding the damn duplex, she simply will not listen to me!

I've told her that you have to use septic safe toilet paper like Scott, that if she uses baby wipes to keep herself clean, that they absolutely, positively, cannot be flushed.
But do you know what the landlord fished out of the septic lines when it got clogged when they lived here before?
That's right!
Baby wipes!!
I'm just really angry and frustrated that she will not listen, that she keeps flushing things down there that is clogging it up, causing it to overflow and back up into the house.
Every morning I have to have the plunger ready just in case it starts to back up because they get up at 5am and she uses baby wipes every morning.
I've told her so so many times to NOT flush them, and she insists that they are septic safe.
Just because it says so on the box does not mean that OUR septic system can handle them.
It's a very old duplex, the septic system is as old as the house, you have to be careful until they finally get around to adding us to the city sewer grid which they've been promising for as long as I've lived here, 12 years.
I'm just really tired and frustrated right now.
