Moved back in with my mum at 26 and she threatens to kick me out when I have a life
I’m 26(f) and moved back in with my mum earlier this year after living on my own for a while.
Since being back, it’s been a bit difficult. She’s quite controlling and reacts badly when I go out or stay at my partner’s place. She’ll start calling loads and sometimes threatens to kick me out or change locks if I’m not home, which makes it pretty stressful.
I want to stay close to my family and keep things stable at home, but I also want to be able to live normally as an adult (see my girlfriend, go out, etc.) without it turning into a huge issue every time.
I’m not in a position to move out right now, so I’m just trying to figure out how people deal with this kind of situation.
Has anyone been through something similar? How did you handle boundaries or make it work while still living at home?
