My Mum has an unhealthy obsession with my younger brother, he’s now approaching his 20’s, she lives her entire life around him & also expects everyone else too.
he treats her badly, has done from being young but got worse throughout his teeens, he’s trashed the house several times, hit out at family, swears at her daily just treats her rotten but she still does every single thing she can for him in terms of running round, if he wants a certain meal she’ll run out to the shops for it, she’d even eat poorly if it meant he got the best, she drops anything to take him somewhere, she doesn’t spend time with my children as she’s so consumed with him, if he texts she’ll say I’ve got to go he needs x y & z.
hell text saying bring me something upstairs she’s straight on and runs up, his meals are delivered to his door she even collects the empty plates.
the majority of her wage goes on him even though he earns more than her she pays for everything.
its always around him, every single conversation comes back to him with her she can’t keep him out her mouth, a lot of the times though she creates the situation for herself like she’s wanting him to react or she puts herself in situations where she will volunteer to do things for him when he’s not asking, for example he’s not hungry and we say oh shall we have a Chinese and she’ll say no you can’t that’s not fair on him, or she’ll not leave the house in case he rings for a lift it’s like she wants to be at his service it’s so bizarre.
I can’t tell you the things she done for him over the years, these are just a few things, I’d had a section after my second last year & my husband had gone working away the days after so she’d come up and my brother had text her saying he’s no bedding on so she said I need to go it’s not fair he needs bedding.
anytime we speak she mentions him and can’t stop saying how much she dislikes him yet she voluntarily goes out her way to do things I can’t understand it.
she always says she has no money but it’s because her wage is going on him but she’s making sure it does, he doesn’t ask half the time she chooses to but then can’t stop complaining that she’s no money because of him.
it’s driving me crazy as we can’t go a conversation without him being the topic.
just letting off steam…
