[quote=Anonymous]OP said that: "I’m so glad I’m not a jerk. I’m so glad at least most of my siblings are helpful. I’m so glad I’m modeling decent caregiving behavior for my own kids (who enjoy visiting their grandmother)." So if she's modeling how not to be a jerk, how did her brother become a jerk? OP is not getting a lot of compassion because she wants to control how the care of her mother should look like. Her brother cannot come and see mom without "bringing something", and the audacity, unannounced! In reality it seems her mom has too many issues to even be living on her own, meaning she is at the point of needing too much "help" for anyone who is not retired and has kids at home. So for example if your sibling would insist you do your mom's heart operation, would you do it? Of course not. OP's mom doesn't remember who visited when or to eat, and cannot leave the house independently, does it sound like she should be living alone? [/quote]
