My mom is very jealous and my dad supports her?

[Anonymous]

My mom only wants one thing - money.

So far as we were young/children etc. my dad used to be that protective barrier between my mom and everyone else.

Now though, I noticed he supports her. I think the reason is because he sees it as we're grown up, we should be living our own lives.

Technically I agree with that, but I am fed-up of his supporting her.

So just how long do you plan on continuing being a lowlife parasite?

[Asker]

And how am I a 'lowlife parasite?'

[EmmaMary]

By still living at home and not living your own life.

[Asker]

I would feel more guilty about this if it was actually a home in which my mom truly had built it off of hard-work.

She hasn't.

[EmmaMary]

I bet it must be so gutting for you now, seeing your father supporting your mother and having stopped your monthly allowance! 😂

[Asker]

So are you saying that what my mom is doing is right? Let's take me out of the equation for a second.

[EmmaMary]

No, let's keep you in the equation, for it's quite obvious that you plan on following in your mother's footsteps.

[Asker]

Not really. What irritates me is the change in my dad's behaviour.

I had always thought that as long as my dad's around, there is someone who actually wants me to live a good life.

It's not hard to stay rich if your family is rich, investing in real estate properties etc.

I know if my mom had it her way, she would throw us all out and put everything in her name, so far the only thing that has been stopping her is fear of my dad.

Now she's free to do whatever she wants.

It's my dad's change that irritates me, my mother's behaviour is really nothing new I've been dealing with it since the time I was a minor - even when it was my family's obligation to take care of me.

This is kind of all over the place. Like what’s she jealous of? What is he supporting? Why is he a protective barrier?

[Asker]

She's jealous of everything - me being younger, better looking, educated etc.

He is supporting her bullying of me.

Because he knows she has a malicious nature, I think he realizes too that she doesn't really love her kids.

Gotcha. Well maybe it’s time to separate yourself from them and move out. There’s not much you can do about who she is as a person, but what you can control is what you allow yourself to put up with. It’s not unusual for people to have to create space away from toxic family.

So what arebu asking

[boggboss]

What are u asking?

[Asker]

I'm not sure. I don't know where to go from here.

I am just done.

[boggboss]

So live your life

[Asker]

I was going to something really important career-wise and she completely ruined it for me and now I'm really sad.

[boggboss]

How?
