However, last October, my brother kicked my both parents out from his house after an argument, according to my parents, who are now staying with me. When she came to stay with me, she couldn't even open the house door grill – we stay in an 800sq ft apartment. She does not even want to learn how to take a lift to go downstairs! Her friend came over one day and was surprised to find out about that. So the friend advised my mum, saying she needs to learn all this and be more independent; only then did mum follow the advice. Even if she could do something, she would rather ask others to do it for her, such as making a phone call.
I have been thinking a lot and feeling stressed over their attitude and not having my own space. Even after work, I can't have my"alone time" in the living hall as they are there, watching TV from morning till night. Sometimes I wonder why I am left alone to face all these issues. I really have no one I can rely on; I have to shoulder the burdens on my own.
Your parents are acting like spoilt toddlers. Frankly, I’m surprised you didn’t follow your brother’s example. You have been extremely patient and kind. However, this situation cannot continue.Adults choose to have children but it does not mean that they own their kids or are entitled to free maid service for life.Living takes work. We need to dust, clean, cook, press our own lift buttons, and make our own phone calls. Kids learn to contribute when small; old folks do their share too.
Family quarrels do lead to permanent fracture of family ties with the elderly being alone in hospitals or care centres. When you and your brother work out options, talk to your parents. They’re going to shout and scream because they are spoilt but this difficult conversation has to happen and changes have to be made.
