[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are 27. Act like an adult and don't be around her. [/quote] +1 You're 27 and in her home. You're basically taking complete advantage of your mother for a free place to crash, admitting you cannot stand her. Go to a hotel or stay at a friend's house if she's that bad. Why do you think you get to stay at mom's house for free but she cannot talk to you as if she's your mom? Personally, you sound nuts to tell your mother to keep her opinion to herself over something as benign and stupid as wasted calories in iced tea. I guess tone of voice is everything, but you could have said, "Oh, sorry, I didn't see that sitting there" and gone upstairs without the drama. I get she raised you, but you need to learn how to act too. I would not want a house guest like that in my house, where I pay the bills, utilities and groceries. You are not her equal. Sorry.[/quote] OP here- I am not taking complete advantage of her at all. I offered to pay rent for the month I'd be here and both her and my dad said no and that all they'd ask for me is for help with my sister (driving her to/from activities, etc.) as they both would be working. On top of that, I clean the house, cook dinner 4-5 nights a week, organized the pantry and two closets that were in desperate need of organizing and also cut the lawn once a week. I've done as much as I could to help out while staying here and no one looks at it as taking advantage. She has serious anger issues and snaps over the smallest things which we all have gotten sick of. She made my 15 year old sister break down crying because she screamed at her for 15 minutes about leaving her towel on the bathroom floor and not hanging it. She takes the tiniest issue and turns it into a screaming fit. [/quote]
