My parents don't want me visiting their house, what should I do?

If they asked you to stay away you should respect their wishes. Why are you even asking us what you should do? They are setting boundaries. Grow up.

Stay away for a whileā€¦ sooner or later your mom will call you and ask you what is going onā€¦ then you can tell her what he said. This sounds like he doesnā€™t want you around and she doesnā€™t know that he said that and he is trying to stirr the pot.

The fact that he said donā€™t tell ur mum would be a red flagā€¦maybe she knows nothing about this and you should say it to herā€¦he should controlling so say it to her

Cut them off and when your mom asks why tell her her husband can tell herā€¦

Toughen up and learn to call and ask if theyā€™re busy first. And it sounds like you were going over a lot. How about once a week?

Yep,helped make my decision to pack 4 kids& move several states away

You might of worn out your welcome and they are just tired of always having so many people around all the time.

A home should always be thatā€¦a homeā€¦itā€™s a safe haven for crying out loudā€¦.

There is a pandemic. My parents arenā€™t letting anyone over either.

Have you thought about working so you arenā€™t bored?

I say this out of love. It is not normal for an adult to spent that much time with their parents. You need friends & it is so hard to find them when you are a mom. I will be your friend if you want to message me.

Another thought is therapy. It can be sooo good for working out whatever anxieties are making you struggle to cleave.

In saying that you should be welcome.
There is a difference in visiting to spend time, and visiting to do your hair.

Sit down and talk to your mumma about this. And ask her straight out simple. Donā€™t go on what someone else said, cos they can easily say I didnā€™t say that.

Do you take food, etc, or do you expect them to stretch their budget to feed you.
Something to consider

I have 1 of THOSE STEP DADSā€¦be very careful how you bring it to your mom it could backfire.

That would definitely hurt me! I think you should but I also understand not wanting too to avoid drama .

Itā€™s not your Mom or he would let you talk to her about it.

Bring it up because he could be being a dick and even if he isnā€™t you need to talk it out and figure out what the issue is asap

They probably want some time to defrag, donā€™t take it personally. Have a few weeks break and use it to self reflect. She will miss you and maybe even visit you!

First of all, if they donā€™t want you visiting then donā€™t visit. Simple. Your place being unsafe is a topic that should be discussed and done something about between you and your husband. You can talk to your parents but ultimately the actions are to be taken by you and husband. Them not wanting to be rude about needing a break from your frequent visits should be respected. There could be a lot of reasons behind stepdad asking not to let your mum know. Maybe heā€™s more uncomfortable than your mum. Wants his privacy as well. Keep in mind that it is his home as well and not just your mumā€™s. He said take a break, he didnā€™t say stop completely. Talk to your mum. Your sister gets help with kid; you are a grown adult. It sounds like youā€™re hurt that they donā€™t say anything about this kid being over as well but again, you are an adult and this kid needs supervising. It is not your parents fault that you barely ask for help so you canā€™t hold it against them. You have a husband who is supposed to be your partner through everything. Talk to him. Donā€™t say youā€™re fighting not to break down in front of him because if itā€™s not in front of him then in front of who??

Dad doesnā€™t want you to tell Mom he said that? Nah f that. Iā€™d be going straight to her and asking her myself.

It is the most uncomfortable feeling in the world rightā€¦

If heā€™s the step dad then the mum probably doesnā€™t know. I would tell her so she can see exactly what heā€™s like

100% bring it up to your mom. Red flag he didnā€™t want anything said to herā€¦.

Call your mother thatā€™s definitely a red flag since he doesnā€™t want you to tell her sneaky what he trying to hide

Bring it up to your mom anyway. I donā€™t trust stepā€™s. Get your mom to have the nerve to tell her yourself.

I think you should resolve why you feel unsafe at your house. Get to the bottom of it and try to resolve the issue. In the long run it would benefit you.

If your grown n have ur own place than ur parents have all right to tell you spend ur time elsewhere

They need a break, give them a break? Everyone has boundaries that need to be respected.

Confront her maybe itā€™s a misunderstanding you have no idea how many people have stopped talking to each other because of a misunderstanding like this

Awe, Iā€™m sorry :frowning:
I couldnā€™t imagine my mom or step dad saying this to me. Take a deep breather and find comfort in something you love doing. Donā€™t allow this to affect t you. Your so use to home and thats ok. I would suggest bringing in things to make you feel more at home in your own house. This can help in so many ways. Its ok for adults to want alone time especially if their children are moved out of the home. Give them a little space each week and pick certain days you do go visit with them. This will create a better bond between all of you. Even though space is not what u need, it may be what they need. :heart::blush:

Ummm talk to ur mom. Step dad or not thats ur mom

Maybe youā€™re overdoing it by going over there so often? Youā€™re invading his privacy, intruding on his home, etc.
maybe your step dad just wanted some peace and quiet that day, (something heā€™s earned the right to have) and then, in you walkā€¦ again. Itā€™s probably getting old and heā€™s feeling super frustrated by the lack of privacy.

I have four children and I love them all dearly, but when my youngest is old enough to be on his own, Iā€™m gonna throw a party and then set up my house the way Iā€™ve wanted to for years, but couldnā€™t. And while my children will always be welcome to come over and visit me, I donā€™t want them hanging out in my house when Iā€™m not there! Thatā€™s kinda like theyā€™re still not out of the house.

Also, ask yourself how your parents are benefitting from your constant use of their home?
Are you making them dinner and leaving it for them to enjoy when you leave?
Are you filling up their fridge with groceries? Are you scrubbing their floors while you ā€œhang outā€ at their house? Are you doing their laundry? How are they benefitting from you being there so often?

Now ask yourself how you are benefitting by the constant use of their home? Are you using their house as a place to feel safe while your husband is at work? Are you avoiding your household duties by hanging out in a house thatā€™s already clean? While youā€™re there, are you welcoming yourself to food and drinks? Do you put your dirty dishes in their sink, etc?

Your parents have already raised you. Your actions, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, should never become an added burden to their expenses or their household responsibilities. They shouldnā€™t have to buy more OJ any sooner than they otherwise would have, they shouldnā€™t have to wipe one more counter than they would have, shouldnā€™t have to load one more dish or sweep the floor sooner because of your visits. You are an adult and your presence at their house should only add to their life, never steal away from it. Theyā€™ve earned this right.

I find it weird that heā€™s your step dad and he told you to stop coming there and to not bring it up to your mom im sorry if that was my step dad Iā€™d say f**k you and tell my mom regardless of how long theyā€™ve been married if he raised me any of that heā€™s still my step dad and only what my mom says matters if she doesnā€™t want her child coming to her house fine but someone who isnā€™t my blood doesnā€™t get to tell me to not visit my mom plain and simple

Thatā€™s too sad. I would tell or ask my mom regardless. ā€œIf thereā€™s an issue, let me know and Iā€™ll gladly do my best to not be a bother.ā€

I hope to be able to welcome my grown kids until I die.

Heā€™s honestly probably tired of you coming to his house every damn day!

Talk to your mom because he said not to say anything to her,so he prob came up with it his self.

Sometimes family gets too much of family. Be cool.

I would just not call/text/go over. Iā€™m sure at some point they will reach out and I would just tell them Iā€™m respecting their wishes :woman_shrugging:t3:

Thatā€™s not being rude or vengeful itā€™s truly just doing what was asked of you.

I however cannot imagine having the heart to say those words to my children. Even when theyā€™re on my nerves I canā€™t imagine telling them I donā€™t want them to come over as often. Iā€™m their safe space. And plan to be until Iā€™m no longer around.

Mention it to your mom
Find a new hangout place

Talk with your mom and dint ever let anyone tell you nit to no matter how old you or they are.

Talk to your mom and hear her side first.

Leave nothing unsaid life is short say what U need to if you dont you will regret it

I would talk to my mom about it. :person_shrugging:

Tell your Mom he said that. I guarantee she has no idea & thatā€™s all him.

Sometimes you need to give people space to miss you.

Time to talk to your mom.

People set boundaries when they feel their privacy/time/space is being invaded. I would try to respect that and give them space. Talk to your mum privately, maybe make plans and go out with her away from the house

Ask your mom if she needs a break from you coming over

Talk to your momā€¦get it out in the open as to why he would say that.

I would absolutely talk to your mother. Your step dad might be way off the mark speaking for her, until you know how she feels for sure I wouldnā€™t hold a grain of salt to it. Especially knowing youā€™ve never had a good relationship with him.

When you go over there do you pick up and clean after yourself or treat there their place different? Just a questionā€¦cause you could dye your hair at home ā€¦and why I ask that is because I have a friend that has a daughter that comes to their house everyday and never picks up after her self and eats their food and walks out and her mom is really needing to know how to bring it up to her about Not coming over or bring her own maidā€¦

I love my girls and my sil and my grandkids. I love seeing them. That said, I donā€™t need them hanging in my house daily or a few days per week. A phone call, a walk, a half hour visit are all ok and an occasional dinner i could handle preparing. Going to dinner out or shopping, running errands together also ok. It doesnā€™t mean I donā€™t absolutely adore them allā€¦it just means my home is now a quiet place with my own, boring routine - anything that disrupts that is unfair to me. ļæ¼
