Parenting - you're doing it wrong.

Run.....NOW!!

When the mother holds you back from moving out so she has help with the bills, she's failed as a parent

Better late then never right? It's good thing you're getting out though. ;/

This is a Lifetime movie I'm watching right now...

u think u can just move out...what am I supposed to do get a job...yea right u spoiled ass bitch!

Id be gone in a heartbeat. That usess bitch can go ahead and starve if shes been living off of u!

Guess you passed the tipping point.... Maybe moving out around 18 would have done the trick.

Wow. Usually it's the kid who mooches off the mom. Kudos (sp?) to you for supporting yourself and your mother at such a relatively young age. It sounds like, for some reason, your mom has gotten a little too comfortable in her dependency on you and has developed a sense if entitlement. If your mom is capable of supporting herself and truly is just leaning on you out of laziness, you need to move out and start living your own life or else her dead weight is gonna drag you down and hold you back in life forever. Don't let her manipulate you into staying where you are, as hard as it may be to cut ties with your mother. Good luck! Spread your wings and fly!
