[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your mother only guilt trips you because you're there. If you need to have her at your house for less time or stay at hers for less, do that. [/quote] She refuses outside help and will starve if I don’t do stuff for her. Or walk around unsafely and get hit by a car. [/quote] Tell her, in one of her more lucid moments, that caring for another human being is a LOT of work and just like when new mothers hire babysitters for a break, you need to hire someone to take care of her so you can have a break sometimes. Or, can you hire outside help for YOU? Someone to meal prep all your mom's lunches and breakfasts and do a few loads of laundry? Something like that.[/quote]
