My mom is so stressful to be around

r/

I really do hate my mom, she’s probably one of the most irresponsible women in my life, she’s constantly asking for money from me & not paying it back, I remind her constantly to give me my money back and she says “well you won’t have that in so and so weeks”, I am fucking pissed, so this month I refused to pay board because it’s the money she owes me, I couldn’t give a shit how she feels, I am constantly paying out for everything, my siblings school supplies, food, everything is reliant on me because she thinks it’s normal to rely on her kids for money and I’m exhausted by it, I really am.

She is taking the I’m so suicidal route with all of this and keeps crying about it, she says I can’t live like my friends because I wasn’t born with a silver spoon unlike them, which they weren’t, their parents just have a job.

God this is all so stressful, I fucking hate her and her irresponsible actions with money, she can’t just fucking save for this type of shit, she’s a stupid gambler and I can’t stand her, it’s getting to a point now where money is controlling my life and relationships

Never have kids as a teen and end up like this, it’s fucking stupid

    Gosh. I am so sorry you’re going through this. I would recommend in the future to pay your board and only your board. Have this conversation with your mom when you’re not actively arguing. Also put away whatever money you can for yourself and work on getting out on your own when you are able to.

    Your mom has a problem and things will never change until she accepts this and chooses to change.

    I take my job as a mom seriously. Even when things were tight I prioritized and paid bills and food and kids needs before even considering my own. I would have been gutted for my kids to even know that I was struggling financially never mind asking them for money.
