I ended up talking to my sister A about all this. A is the mother/grandmother to all these children my mother is taking responsibility for. A said she is contributing. So I thought that was good. Also A called my mom to see if she really needed money. My mom said I misunderstood her. She was trying to help me. But that's not how it sounded to me. And I don't want the kind of help she is offering. I don't really know what happened now. It doesn't matter. I'm tired of being drawn into this drama. Thanks for all the kind support. I appreciate it.
