I could do a little house and lawn work and that was it. Sure, I'd have paid some if I had a job, but if I had any money at all it was cash my mom gave me.

But yeah, I wonder about her threats of legal action. Supposedly the resources I consumed were "stolen" because of my not-paying, also the emotional damage caused by my behavior. Or so my mom claims.
Why on earth would I sit here to criticize?

No need to explain how things are when living at home. Of course the average parent willingly helps their child regain their foothold.

Don't allow yourself to subject yourself to feeling powerless to this nonsense on your mother's part.

Maybe you did have your share of heated arguments with her. It was her duty to settle the situation down, not you. Lead by example, they say.
Thanks for this!
