      I feel you. When i was in highschool, my dad went overseas, but my mom wanted to work out the last few years to get a decent early retirement package, so we stayed. With just the 2 of us at home for 2 years, we developed an extremely tight bond. Then, 1st year in college, i lived in a dorm an 8 hour train ride from home & only got to go home once a month. This was back in the days before the internet & cell phones, but i was preoccupied with the newness of college life, so the limited communication was only occasionally troubling. My 2nd year she went to join my dad, so no more laundry weekends, home cooking or the odd extra $20-30 to the education fund & worst of all, only the rare long distance call. Mostly missed our catch up chats over cups of tea. Got to stay at home alone through the summer before 3rd year which was disheartening. Then, just as they rented out the house, my parents relocated from the city to a semi rural location in the mountains with only dubious radio phone contact. Suddenly i felt like an orphan set adrift. I was an adult, had lived away from home, but now i had to establish a real home of my own, with no physical support from or connection to family. I was so jealous of fellow students who lived close enough to only board 4-5 nights a week.

    I can't even imagine this kind of support. So many people are struggling to keep their heads above water. There are only so many hours in the day. Especially for moms recovering from giving birth (or just parents in general). My mother in law has spent years watching TV all day long, making excuses when we need help, like she just doesn't have any interest in her grandkids or seem to care that we are struggling in general. My kids will have my full support through all stages of life. I could never just lay around all day knowing my kids and grandkids needed me. It's about showing up for each other in whatever way we can. It's so beautiful to see this kind of love and support on full display here. ❤ The world needs more shining examples of this!!

      Who did you have your kids for? Your mother in law? You wanted to have a family. They are your responsibility. Your life is your responsibility. Also, when it comes to work, everything in our world is automated. You have a dishwasher, a microwave oven, washing machines, and automated vacuum cleaner. What exactly do you even need the help with, loading the dishwasher and folding clothes. You don't even have to cook any longer, there is baby food prepackaged. It's not like you have to go get water from the lake or grow your own food. You don't have to wash laundry by hand, scribing your hand to blood. Modern people are so lazy and entitled.

    Im 30 years old, I have four kids. My mom passed away two years ago the other day my mother-in-law called me that she wanted to spend time with the kids. She wanted to take them to her house. I told her of course, but they have to clean up before they go, she said she’ll come in 20 minutes she was here in less than five minutes And I am beyond grateful. She told them to clean up their room. She washed the dishes, and threw out the trash 20 minutes later, dishes, clean, and trash thrown out. she took three of my four kids to her house I am so grateful for that. She helps me so much. And no she doesn’t do this all the time this is the third time in the two years she came to help she Said she knows how hard it is. That a mother’s job is never done even though we clean it gets dirty right away. I’m aso happy to have a wonderful mother in law like her.

      My MIL broke on to steal stuff. Wish mine snuck in to make the bed. Some do it specifically to make the wife feel bad.. some mil are just bad.. mine just a thief and greedy .. mine my husband went no contact and she was banned years ago. She actually stole our entire house and barrowed money against it. Cops was called and well. Charges was pressed and it hit the fan for her. We saved up money and cash flowed building our house. We owned our house free and clear. Even land it sat on. She knew this. We got a call Valentine’s Day one day from bank they was foreclosing do to oner mot paying and they was selling it. We told them, sorry I have wrong people. We own this free and clear, never ever owned money on it. How we found out she stole the deed and title and forged our names and got loans on it. Her friend at the court house went to jail too! They did this a few times! Hit the fan! She is out of jail now lol trying to contact us with her sob stories.. only certain people amd my family know where we are and what state and our phone numbers. My husband is adopted.. thank goodness he doesn’t share a bloodline with that woman! Not every MIL means well. They do want to make u look bad, while they make themselves look good whike saying see, I’m helping.. their not. Their hurting. They only want to look good for themselves. I have the MIL from hell. My husband disowned her. Been nice. 15 years ago. She still tries through others. People have finally stopped trying to guilt us into having a relationship with her when she stole our entire house. We had 3 small children. Our youngest at the time was 3 months old. She was going to leave us homeless. She didn’t care. That’s how greedy. Your mother in law problems could always be worse! So remember just talk to your MIL. she honestly may think she is helping u as well. She may not be realizing she is hurting u. I always wanted a good MIL. But I never will.. mines a low down dirty fraud and felon who will and has stolen from her own mother and children and grandchildren. She will still from the dead. And has.. and will in the future. Ugh she will go to jail again. Always does.. she just acts prime and proper and goes to church and innocent. She will claim it’s a misunderstanding and innocent even when she in jail lol

    My dad did this for me...I was overwhelmed being a new mum, working full time and my mother had recently passed away...I was struggling. The dishes were piled up to the sky in the sink.. as I left home I asked God to send me an Angel to help with these dishes. When I got home from work and doing the school run, there was my dad at the sink washing those dishes....I am forever grateful.

This example aligns with who I am not just as a parent, but a person in general. Showing kindness, compassion and concern for others is absolutely helping them invest in their future.

      Exactly! He really is far from spoiled. Prior to medical school he lived in Maryland on his own, commuted to Washington DC daily to work in a lab, paid his own bills, cooked his own food / or ate out😅 volunteers with younger students who want to go into medicine……point is he is quite capable of taking care of himself and does but his plate is full most of the time.
      We are so happy to have him living in the same state while in medical school knowing there is a chance residency will be out of state again in the future.
      We are happy to help in small ways and typically it is only about once a month while he is out working or studying.

    Once when I was like 25 (33 now).. my apartment got so messy that cleaning it by myself was super overwhelming because it was REALLY messy. I called my mom crying and asked if she would help me clean it lol. She did. We took my mountain of clothes to the laundromat because doing them at her house would've taken literal days. I took up 3 tripple load washers. We washed dried and folded all my clothes. Pretty much after that day.. I never let it get that bad ever again. Now I clean before its noticeably messy and am always on top of keeping my space clean. Too much mess gives me that feeling being overwhelmed and I hate it. So I dont let it get to that point anymore and clean before it becomes too much.
