Today, I found out my roomie has lost her only source of income. This means I'm responsible for all the bills and the rent. I would kick her out and get someone else, but she's my mother. FML

First off, the OP just said that the very reason they're NOT kicking her out is because she's their mother. Secondly, stfu, because the parents decide to have the baby, not the child, AND they have less taxes

Yes...You have to carry this weight...

She took care of you your whole life, you can at least help her out til she gets on her feet. Jeez.

I'm assuming that your mother paid for all of your expenses for most of your life. Why can't you pay for hers until she gets back on her feet? She just got fired/laid off, and it doesn't seem very considerate of you to be complaining about it. However, it sounds like you might not be able to make payments without her. Is there any way you could cut down costs a little bit by having her apply for food stamps? I know that only helps a little bit, but it's at least something. In the meantime, try to be positive about the changes in her life and encourage her to apply for jobs.

I am all for respecting your parents, except when they take advantage of their kids and treat them more like a sibling then their son or daughter. Also if they are capable of going out and providing for themselves, they don't need to be catered to.

i think you mean im pretty *sure you never learned grammar. if your gonna correct someone, do it right.

They very well could've bought a house together that they needed both incomes to afford comfortably, therefore having only one income would seriously impact OP. Don't judge unless you know the circumstances to the arrangement.

Hey kdog, that was already pointed out but thanks again. Also if YOU'RE going to correct somebody, at least do it right.
