I’m sure this has been asked numerous times but how do you deal with a parent who’s consistently negative. I’m 22 and have been lucky enough to be living at home, I am aiming to get a house by the end of the year or early next year. It’s gotten to a point where for the last year I’ve been dreading coming home from work purely because of my mother. My parents are still married because neither would be able to afford life post divorce. So I’ve been surrounded by nonstop negativity and it’s been at its worst the last few weeks after a massive argument between my parents. Since then my mother hasn’t said a single thing to me other than I’m lazy, I’m useless, nothing I do is ever good enough and talks under her breath whenever I’m around. Don’t get me wrong I love her and was always a mummy’s boy but it’s at a point where im questioning if I want anything to do with her when I move out. I could count on one hand how many times my dad has raised his voice at me or my two older brothers and seeing it wear him down and knowing shit is at its worst is killing me What do I do if there’s anything to do? submitted by /u/mrannonyman
