My father passed away this year and my mom was so close to him. Since that happened, my mom has become very child like and wants to move in with me and my boyfriend. My mom is not sick or anything...she works full time and is financially independent. I am not sure how to handle the situation. Since she is alone now she wants me to be her best friend and she wants to come see me every weekend. I already some spend time with her doing things like movies, shopping, etc... I can't help feeling that she wants to take over my life since growing up she was very over protective and intrusive, even until I left home at 20. Am I being selfish? I can't figure it out since I am still grieving my father's death as well. Family matters are just so complicated. I love my family, but I just feel like I need time to do my own thing and work on a career. If my mom were to move in with me she would have the whole place running according to her strict religious rules. Any opinions are welcome!
