The only way to do it is to confront her. Be kind but firm. The two of you agree on a set date and stick to it..........good luck

This is a hard question for me. I don't know your specific circumstances or how she is driving you nuts. All I can say is that mothers tend to mother because that's all they know how to do. And one thing I can promise you is that there will come a day that you wished she was back in that house driving you nuts. I lost my mother a year ago, and we had an unresolved issue, nothing mind you that kept us apart, but still I've learned that life is too short. Every time she is driving you nuts or mothering to much ask yourself what the alternative is.

Good question. I don't know what the circumstances were 10 years ago that prompted her to move in and I don't know what they are now.
Does she work? Is she able to support herself? If so, I'd sit down and talk to her. Explain how you feel and maybe she'll surprise you.
Without knowing the entire situation it's difficult to come up with the answer. Best of luck.
Good luck.

If she is working and quite capable of living on her own financially, then, just sit her down and tell her that you think it's time that she find her own place. That you need your privacy and that you want to live your own life. You've obviously made it easy for her to stay. You've let her stay with you for 10 long years, you are partly responsible, but a good daughter. Help her to find work if she's not currently working, help her get on her feet. Maybe try to get her a place that is near yours, but not too near.

You remind her in a nice way that this was a temporary thing and since it has been 10 years that u will help her find her own place. Then you make plans to help her find her own place.Good luck

Easy money Laurie. Here's the answer. Read the book "Boundaries" and insist your mother read it also. Then, discuss your living arrangements with her and set a date for her to find a new home
