Okay, so my grandma has been living with us for almost ten years now, ever since my grandpa died. In the last couple of years, she's gotten alzheimer's, and can barely even get out of bed by herself. Someone has to get her up, feed her, clean her, dress her, etc. And since my mom works most of the time, its automatically my responsibility. I'm 18, and I like staying away from home sometimes. Well, sometimes, I need to get away. And I rarely do get out at all. But, everytime I try, my parents call saying they need me at home to help with my grandma. So, I feel guilty and come home. But when I am home, all they can do is tell me I could be doing more than I already am. My mom has told me she doesn't just want me here so I can work, but I always feel that way. It feels like they're using me...What do you think?
