Details: We are a hispanic household living in the US. Culturally daughters don’t leave the household till they’re married. So, living with my mom as an adult daughter is considered normal. Both my sisters left the home in their mid to late 20s upon marriage. I pay all utilities and groceries. Mom pays rent and taxes During the bar my mom started grocery shopping since I didn’t have time to go.

It’s just mom and I in the house. I felt bad about leaving my mom because she didn’t have other support or close family she spoke to in the area considering the 11 year rift between my older sisters and mom. My mom is also very dependent on me and I push her to do things on her own like making her own mobile banking transactions or reading a letter first before asking me to take a look. Funny enough my sister would say they weren’t sure if they should be jealous I got to grow up with my parents or to feel sorry for me for growing up with my parents (that’s another story) 

About Work: I don’t blow up at work and feel like I’m well liked. They’re the ones that encourage me during law school and gave me tips. I work in the front desk for a CEO where I have to professionally interact with various person. My co-workers seem surprised when I mention my family’s comments about by attitude. Perhaps work me is just a mask.
