What a sore subject! I never feel that way myself. But my mom feels quite put-upon by hubby and family. THIS ISN"T THE CASE. We work our bums off to make her happy. I vacuum, mop, dust, clean up after my own dishes and messes... both my dad and I are incredibly neat and tidy people.
The reality of the matter is that she is very poor at communicating her needs. She NEVER stops to even use the bathroom when she feels there is something pressing to be done. And what she sees as pressing, isn't.
I'm sorry... for those of you who feel put-upon... start some hefty lines of communication.
THERE IS NO REASON FOR YOU TO FEEL THIS WAY AND IT WILL DRIVE YOUR LOVED ONES INSANE TRYING TO MEET YOUR UNSPOKEN NEEDS.
Oh, and if you think you're communicating and you still feel this way... YOU'RE NOT! Keep working at it.
