Mom just needs a friend

When I moved out after finishing my apprenticeship, I wanted to thank my mom for letting me live at home during that time. Knowing how caring she is, I offered to get her a dog as a gift. She loved the idea, and the bond she formed with that dog was incredible. In fact, she ended up getting another dog herself two years later. It’s been great seeing how much joy they bring to her life, and I’m glad I could give her something so meaningful as a token of my gratitude.

Nah, moms are adults. Go follow your dreams, brother. She wants you to live your life.

Can’t leave my mom behind, that woman has done so much for me already. My only concern is how shall I ever repay her.

Buy her a dog until you would have kids.
A mother who is sad to see you go will probably forgive you if you occasionally lend her her grandchildren. And you get a free weekend. Win win situation.

Only sick birds don’t leave the nest. I’m going to greatly miss my daughter when she moves out, but it’s what she has to do to live her own life.

I moved out at 22 and would call my parents almost everyday. Just remember to let them help you out even just a little bit. It means a lot to them even if you don’t need it. I’d let them pay when we went out to eat except on their birthdays or anniversary. Or simply ask them for advice or vent to them once in a while. Just try to keep them in your life.

this pre-moving out thought always gets you stuck on making the final decision. But, chase your dreams, I’m sure the parents would want that for you too

I mean if you can provide for yourself and stay at home to care for her I do not see the problem. Are you married or have kids to take care of or something? Then what’s the point of moving to begin with? I’d rather give her the money I’d have to give some random landlord.

Mom’s ok with me leaving, but I just can’t leave her alone to take care of all our pets. She’ll be extra exhausted every day. haha

If your mom makes clear to you that her happiness is dependent on your permanent presence, that’s emotional abuse, period.

I’m in that boat right now. I moved back in to my mom’s house when my wife was stationed overseas. If I were to move out, I would be more worried because she’s in her late 60’s and has already fallen twice in a year. If I wasn’t here I’d be an orphan already. (My dad passed away two years ago)
