Family rant

Crystal, on June 24, 2019 at 7:03 PM Posted in Family and Relationships 0 6
I get married July 28th and my mom is getting evicted. She has known this would happen for months and is now doing something about it. My family expects me to come up with all this money and spend all my free time there getting the house ready . I'm the bad guy because I dont have any money or free time. I work as a cna and medtech and I'm paying for the wedding on my own so I dont have all this money and time eveyone thinks I do and everyone is acting like it's just another day and that I'm being selfish and it's so frustrating. Sorry I just needed to vent.

    I realize it’s family, but you’re not responsible for your mother. I wouldn’t feel too bad about saying you can’t help.

    If she knew about it and knows you're getting married then it's her own fault. Don't feel about someone else's poor choices. It really sucks because she's your mother.

    I dont really have any advice. It sucks that you're going through that.
    On an unrelated note, same name and profession here! Well was, I moved from being a CNA to a Department Assistant to get out of direct patient care for a bit. I'm not sure that everyone realizes how freaking hard you work as a CNA and it doesnt pay nearly what it should.

    You shouldn’t have to be responsible for taking care of your moms stuff. Your working to pay for our wedding and taking care of your own self. I’m sorry your having to deal with all this so close to your wedding.

    Your mother is a grown woman and nobody else is responsible for her but herself. Your family should understand that you cannot do much right now, but maybe offer to help (around the house, not financially) after the wedding / honeymoon is over.

    Your mom is responsible for her own unfortunate situation, the fact that your family is guilt tripping you (regardless of the fact you’re getting married) shows where their priorities are: money.
