I'm living with my mother because of certain family problems, my father died. And it's been about 2 years, and she's driving me nuts. She is getting so spoiled! She will not listen to me. I am not a loud speaking person, and respect my mother. I would not yell or talk back to her. How can i tell her or let her know not to give in. My daughter is two. Should we just move out? CJR

What your mother might not now is that she's not going to always be there for your daughter so she need's to act more like her grandmother than her mother and if it takes for you and your daughter to move out for her to know that then thats what you need to do don't think about it because the more you think about it the more you wonder if it the right choose for you and your daughter. I know just what your going though but my mom knows that she's not going to always be there when my kids need her so they know that grandma is there to help them not to take care of them.

If you move out, you will always have a nagging, guilty feeling with you for leaving your mother. I'd remain with her and really sit her down so you can have a mother-daughter talk. If it won't work at home, take her out if it's possible. Maybe you should raise your voice to make a point....if you don't raise your voice, doing so JUST may get her attention...enough for you to realy tell her what you feel. Hope this helps, and good luck!

i wonder if she's in her second childhood that's why she's acting that way. yah, better move out or else your daughter might imitate what her grandma does. you don't like that to happen, do you?
