[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom was exactly like this OP. PSA: if you volunteer to help them neighbors, they will learn on you instead of their "ungrateful" child who is trying to help with a workable solution. Be very clear about what what you are able to help with.[/quote] OP here. Yes! I certainly don't want mom taking advantage of neighbors. Their offers made it so that she felt she was fine to age in place. If they don't set the boundaries I cannot magically stop her. Just tell her you are no longer available to help. She can afford to hire people for these tasks or live in a place where everything is already covered with monthly expenses.[/quote]
