I have been completely financially supporting my mother for four years now. She is not disabled or anything. I allow her to live in my house (I let her have the master bedroom-I sleep on the couch when I'm there) and pay nothing. I pay all bills, services,and food. In return she watches and homeschools my 12 year old and now watches my baby boy while my hubby and I are at work. (My hubby and I have not combined houses yet as we are recently married and that's another story..)
It has worked pretty well but recently she has started testing my nerves. She acts annoyed when I'm around and keeps asking me when I'm going out. If my brother has been there, she goes on for an hour about how he brought them something special from Whole Foods market. But not once in all this time has she ever said "Thanks" to me. I say thanks all the time to her for watching the kids and let her know I appreciate it. I could just stay at home and move my husband in with me and combine houses..

but that would mean asking her to leave since we would not have a bedroom. We are paying two rents to accomodate my mom and all she ever goes on about is how my brother and his wife are so NICE. I am starting to feel used. Neither my brother or his wife have ever lifted a penny to help us through the difficult times. My husband is getting stressed from this too..please help me..maybe I am just being sensitive.
