It's your mom, take care of her like she did to you[/quote]

What makes me sad to see is so many parents expecting repayment when they're supposed to love their kids unconditionally, no strings attached. If the OP's mother truly loves her, she'll want her to have a happy and comfortable relationship with her husband, which is not what OP is experiencing right now.[/quote]

This. Having children is supposed to a selfless act. If you were a truly kind and loving parent, ideally the children will want to be there for you, but you don't have children to ensure you have caregivers. You can hire caregivers. You can hire a case manager.

My mother had no problem leaving me with anyone breathing-abusive or not. I raised myself in many ways and she lived large with dad. Now suddenly I owe her the moon and nothing is enough. After enough years of abusive behavior where I could not please her I had her use her buckets and buckets of money to hire people. She didn't want to deal with me my entire childhood and i did cartwheels to please her. Now it's time to pay people to do what I have done for free.She also made me her therapist or more like emotional garbage can from about age 4. Time to hire someone for that too.[/quote]
