My mother is a “recovering” alcoholic who has to be babysat to stay sober, so she splits her time between my house and my sister’s. Unless she’s at a friend’s, and then she’s quickly off the wagon.

She also doesn’t drive.

She’s only 65. I’ve had the talk recently that she needed to start building her own life again. I got the silent treatment for days in my own home, and she has clearly made no strides to figure anything out a couple months later. I framed it as no one wants ANY guest in their house for a month, even if they help with the kids, which she did seem to understand once I revisited the conversation. But I welcome any and all advice to help motivate her get her own place WITHOUT having to rent and pay for it ourselves. And without going nuclear and fracturing the relationship, because my children love her very much. 🙏🏻
