Dear Amy: I have a very difficult and stressful relationship with my mother, and I don’t know what to do about it.
You are the child of an addict, and you have assumed the heavy burden that your mother’s addiction has bestowed upon you.
Your mother’s erratic and disappointing behavior has trained you to take responsibility for the outcome, but you need to find ways to lay down this weighty backpack you’ve been carrying. I suggest you join a “friends and family” support group such as Al-anon or Adult Children of Alcoholics , and also read “Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, or Self-Involved Parents,” by clinical psychologist Lindsay C. Gibson New Harbinger.Even though my daughter’s income is substantially below his, he insists that she pay 50 percent of their expenses. She is starting to fall behind and is going into debt in order to keep up.
If she is managing her money responsibly but is not able to afford living with these terms, then something needs to change. It is ultimately extremely expensive to be in debt.
