My real mom told me she was moving in with me and now I am stressed: Advice?

No is a complete sentence!

You don’t have to let her move in, your getting married in a month so letting someone move in should be between you and your Future husband.

You don’t need to stress out your daughter for anything.

She can book a hotel or a tent, camper

Did she just tell you she was moving in with you without asking? Because that’s a bit insane. Just tell her no.

Tell her no. There’s no obligation to house her. No one can just invite themselves to stay in your home, regardless of their connection or what the bonuses of their stay would entail.

As much as it sounds you have on your plate already… you would be neglecting your family’s needs if you allowed her to move in with you. You definitely aren’t in a position to be able to help someone and she’s a terrible person for intruding in this manner 

Did your mom tell you the reason why she made that decision so abruptly?? Talk to her and discuss your feelings

Wtf… How is she telling YOU that she’s moving into YOUR home and you’re just accepting it??? No. Its 100% your call. Even if she DID raise you. Still your call

1 Like

Why exactly is she moving in? This is something that should’ve been discussed first and just not her saying she is. She didn’t even raise you. How is she able to just move in on a whim? I would just tell her it’s not the right time and list all the reasons. I would only let her move in because it’s an emergency like she’s gonna be homeless or something. Sounds rude of her to just do what SHE wants when it is going to impact YOUR life, YOUR kids’ lives, YOUR house.

No judgement here. Curious as to why she didn’t raise you and if it was reckless bahavior that could in some way bite you in the ass when she moves in and instead of helping out makes your hectic life 10x more hectic. You have to do what is right FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. and if that means biting the bullet and telling her no then that’s what you have to do.

Just say no. She cannot force herself in. If you didn’t offer or she didn’t ask and get your approval, she can’t just make that decision for you.

No you are allowed to feel how u feel she really should have spoken to u first however if shes coming n you decide not to say anything then it may be an extra pair of hands to help out with everything yano either way hun i really think you need a break for ya self other wise ya guna explode xxx

Hopefully because of your situation that your mom is moving in to help, but knowing that you are getting married and your entire situation she seems kind of selfish to add more to your already busy life. Maybe try to set her up in a rental room somewhere till you get settled

She can help with the babies with house work if you need a babysitter for date nights then you have your Mom but give her a time limit to get her own housing she has 2 months of staying then you gotta go; lol

No is a complete sentence. You need to set boundaries for yourself and your family. You don’t have to explain yourself or feel guilty for doing so.

I’m sorry to say this .u have enough on your plate like u said she popped this on you make her move to hotel or something till finds a place and u dont need with your kids and pets and your stressed now just waite and imagine if moved in with u it might get stressful if she got pets and your pets might not mix .you both might not mix.

Just say no. She cant force her way into your home

Just say no, your mental health comes first…

Tell her no? You’re an adult? And she decided at one time not to live with you, so why should she be able to choose now to be apart of your life? Why stress yourself out and create chaos (which you clearly have enough of) plus, for the sake of your daughter alone, I think would be enough to tell your mom, No. you need to take care of your family first. Plus, what grown women wants to live in her granddaughters room? She needs her own space.

I would have never told her yes to begin with

It is hard. My mom lived with us a long time. My mom would not go anywhere. Keep your Mom active. Set boundaries. I would not move your daughter to a different room. God bless you. I went thru so much stress with my mom

No! She can go somewhere else

Tell her no! Your house, your rules, if you’re not 100% comfortable with it you will end up resenting her and the relationship will be ruined. Also. She TOLD you shes moving in? Nah fuck that. You’re a grown woman nobody tells you shit. You should tell her to find somewhere else

You don’t “have” to do anything. Your mother shouldn’t be calling you telling you she’s moving on. She should ask and also consider the fact that you have so much going on and that would probably make a bad situation worse. I would do anything for my mom but as long as I’m capable of doing so.

I love my mother and life isn’t guaranteed to anyone so appreciate every second you get with her because you would feel pretty shitty if she passed away tomorrow :thinking::100::+1:

Be an adult and tell her no! My house, my rules, no, you can’t move in. Period. Or give her a couple weeks to get settled and find a job and her own place but make sure she knows from day one, better yet before she moves from where she is now, you have until this date then you have to be out. It was completely out of line for her to announce that she’s moving in to begin with. She doesn’t have that right, it’s your home!!

Your house, your decision. Period. If it’s too much, then tell her that. You little family and what’s best for you guys is ultimately the most important.

Less than 2 wks notice? Why the abrupt decision to just move into your home? And with 3 pets?! I can’t fathom why she would think this is an okay thing to do?
Sounds like you’ve got a full house already. 4 kids (special needs as well), pets of your own…and I assume hubby is moving into your house??
You need to tell her it’s not what you want, that it’s not good for you & the children and that’s your first priority. AND you need to tell her ASAP!! So she can either stay where she is or make other arrangements.
Now, if she’s going to be homeless (for whatever reason) it’s not going to be easy. But you already say it’s not what you want so stick to your guns. Or it’s not going to be easy on anyone. Good Luck to you, and to her as well.

I’d say hell no. Mother I not, no one should say that they’ll just move in with you because they say so. Your kids comes before your mother. If she’s young enough to not need help, she can sleep in the living room and get a job. Give her a set date to get out and write it down. when said date comes, and she’s still there after, force her out. call cops if she won’t listen. it’s your home, not hers.

Is it possible that she thinks you need her? Sounds like u have a lot on your plate. If she didn’t raise you maybe it’s her way of making amends for something. Talk it Thur with her.

If you have a good relationship you don’t want it to turn into resentment because this isn’t what you wanted.

I didn’t see my birth father until I was 37 I maintained a good relationship with him even after I moved out of state. Once a year I paid for him to come down for a visit. I did it for about 10 years until I couldn’t afford to, although I did send money on holidays and stayed in contact by phone. He still came by bus and he approached me about moving in with me. I just had to tell him that it wouldn’t work out. He took it pretty well. I gave him the reason it wouldn’t work. My family came first, you need to get your priorities straight! Your family comes before someone that didn’t raise you!

You must have invited her. If not thats intrusion on your life. This should have been thought through better.
It’s your home. Tell her she is not welcome to live with you & direct her to the local rentals in your area. If that’s not good enough than I guess she’ll have to stay where she is.

Ummm say no. You have no obligation to her to allow this. Say no. Tell her immediately and tell her that If she wants to move by you, she needs her own apartment. Put you first. And your family first. Be firm.
