My Mom Threw Me Out for Her New Family, Then Demanded Tuition Money For…
In addition, it was because of him that I was initially able to attend college. He was the only person who was prepared to assume the responsibility of co-signing my loan application. If you consider it, I might not be in this situation at all if it weren’t for him.
I made sure to let him know that what he did wasn’t appropriate since I don’t want to come across as unappreciative, but I’m also not a doormat. Whatever I did was fair enough, and I believe I found the ideal balance. We’re doing great together, and I won’t hold anything against him because I needed this resolution somehow.
I also discussed my mom’s recent struggles with my grandparents. They believe I’m correct and have promised to make an effort to persuade her to change her mind. They realized that they didn’t want to lose touch with their other grandchildren, which is why they have remained in touch with my mom. They understand the struggles my mom’s family is going through, but they don’t think it’s right or fair to put me through this. That’s their position on the issue, and I believe it’s reasonable enough.
First Update
My mother has taken it upon herself to remind me of all she did for me growing up ever since we last spoke, which was nearly nine days ago. She probably sends me an email every other day to make me feel like I owe her something. It’s not like she gave me a favor by raising me alone, and she was legally required to take care of me, so I don’t really understand the point.
She only reared me when it was convenient for her. She and her spouse decided to expel me as soon as I started to cause them trouble, citing the need to save money for the twins in their future. Now that we’re in the future and the twins are adults, I believe they should rely on themselves rather than wasting time trying to manipulate and guilt trip me.
Although I had been ignoring her emails, I made the decision to reply a few days ago. I explained to her all I had written in my essay. She didn’t take it well, as expected, and labeled me ungrateful once more.
I just informed her:
“Calling me names would not alter the truth and that I no longer wanted to have any contact with her because she had been a bad mother.”
I blocked her email account after that, but she made a new one to continue to annoy me since she never done the same for me. I block that one as well, and I’ll keep doing so until she understands that I’m not here to mope about her. To be honest, I’m glad we’re finally having this discussion because I think it will end quickly and I’ll have the necessary closure.
Only because I was still clinging to the hope that perhaps they had changed, that perhaps they were here to congratulate me and make amends, did I welcome them into my house and talk to them that day. However, speaking with them made me realize that they are just not the type of individuals who are able to experience regret, guilt, or shame. I fully given up on ever making amends with them after it once again made me realize how self-centered and cunning they are.
Second Update
I believe that my mother’s appearance at my place of employment earlier today was the most bizarre thing she has ever done. Fortunately, I wasn’t working today, so she departed really fast and didn’t succeed in her endeavor. I was feeling a little under the weather, so I decided to take the day off, and I’m so happy I did. She would have definitely thrown a fit or done anything to make me look foolish if I’d been present.
When the receptionist called to inform me that my mom had arrived, wanting to see me and refusing to go despite being informed that I wasn’t there, I learned the truth. When they put her on the phone with me, I firmly told her that I was at home even though I was already rather anxious about what she might do.
She was informed that:
“If she attempted anything at my place of employment, I would sue her until she would be too ashamed to send her children to college.”
I did my best to sound threatening, so I believe it truly frightened her. She agreed to depart right away provided I met her in person, so it must have worked.
I reminded her that:
“She couldn’t afford a lawsuit at the moment and informed her that she wasn’t in a position to be making demands.”
I also mentioned that my employer would not think twice about suing her if the situation worsened, which would be a very different scenario because they wouldn’t be as forgiving as I’d been.
I said:
“She’d be better off just going out in silence.”
I didn’t get any more calls or notifications regarding the event, so I guess she left after giving the phone back to the receptionist. I can’t afford for this to happen again because that was undoubtedly a near call. I’ve made the decision to speak with a lawyer to find out what precautions I may take. She hasn’t threatened me directly, so I’m not sure if this is enough to get a restraining order, but I still want to speak with the attorney to discuss my alternatives. I just have to hope that this experience was unpleasant enough for her to think about leaving me alone till then.
Update 3
Since I’m very certain we now have grounds for a restraining order, I suppose I don’t need to consider filing one. When my mother arrived at my place of employment last week, I was able to persuade her to leave. However, in light of this week’s events, I believe that a restraining order against her needs to be issued for everyone.
She was waiting outside my door when I got home from work a few days ago. I informed her right away that I didn’t want to argue and that I would call the police if she didn’t leave. She practically raced at me and threw me to the ground, sending my phone flying out of my hands as I was ready to dial. She cursed at me and blamed me for everything that had gone wrong in her life while she attempted to beat me up.
It took me a while to react since I was so taken aback by her insane conduct. However, because I consistently work out and am much younger than her, it was simple for me to overwhelm her when I did. Fortunately, all the shouting had alerted my neighbors to the problem and caused them to call the police. They even came to my aid and restrained my mother as we awaited the arrival of the cops.
I made the decision to file charges when the police eventually arrived. She is currently in a lot of trouble. In addition, I’ve discussed this with my attorney and requested a restraining order against her.
I’ve been informed that Harry has taken the children and moved in with his parents. I’m not sure if he intends to come back anytime soon. He apparently challenged her about her behavior after saving her and informed her that she couldn’t continue acting in this manner. She also got into a fight with him, which seems to mean she’s really lost it.
I believe she finds it difficult to believe that I’m doing well in life, but in all honesty, she is to blame for her own issues. I will not be sorry for her. I’ll have the restraining order in place soon, and since I’m making more money, I’ve already started thinking about moving into a larger home since now seems like the ideal moment.
I’m going to start exploring my alternatives. Being linked to someone like that is embarrassing, so I sincerely hope my mother receives the support she needs and learns to behave normally. She has also been nasty to my grandparents, who have told me they no longer want to be around her. The only person she can blame for everyone avoiding her is herself. Anyway, I’m not worried about it anymore.
