Shortly after my husband and I moved in together in a small trailer in Illinois, his father died. His dad was on disability and support him and his wife. After he died his wife had no money and was not able to make it on her own, my husband and I stepped in. I was three months pregnant at the time both of us working and paying all the bills. The moment I met his mother I knew she wasn't in the right state of mind even before her husband died. She always wanted things to go her way and if they didn't she threw a fit, even if that meant marching around the neighbourhood making a scene. She did or said things to my side of the family and no one likes her being around for long periods of time because of that. One day me and hubby got into a pretty big argument and I went to stay with my mother for a few days align with my now 8moth old daughter . His mother told him I was no long allowed on her property, let me remind we are still paying all of her bills. Me and hubby made a last minute decision to move to Colorado with my father just to get away from everything. And we're still paying all of her bills. She has seen doctors and tried to apply for disability for herself but she was denied. I no longer work so I am able to stay home with our baby. I'm irritated that every time we've asked her to get a job, even just part time, her response is "I've done my time"...she's 52.... am I wrong to be irritated that she could of been helping us in the past three years we've been busting our butt's to help her when she could of done something to help too?
