My oldest son came down on me- told me its my fault that I have stopped parenting the kids bc of school and all that has happened is bc of me.

My husband got mad at me bc I think a company we have done a lot of business w/ did us a bit dirty yesterday.

Feeling very depressed and unmotivated

I cant be the parent I was when my grown children were young. We had a lot more financial freedom. I could afford to stay home. We got to do a lot of things we cant afford now. I am much older, I am sicker, mentally and physically but I am trying to so hard to get a degree to try to elevate our lives so I can offer the young children more but for now. I need to focus on school. Or quit. But then I would have to get a dead end job that would take me out of the house with no promise of a brighter future. I am so upset I am ready to kick him and his wife out

Does he contribute to the household? You are doing a big thing if you are letting him live without paying any rent. It takes a big heart and a loving mother to allow their grown children to stay home.

As long as you are trying your best and the younger children know, I think you can weather this storm. Remember, you are doing this to better your children's lives. Keep up the hard work!
