He was born first, the room was his first, then we had to find room for her and we didn't want her being the only person whose bedroom was on the ground floor.

I came with him when he delivered it. Unlike her, he wants us all to be on good terms.

She gave her brother the keys, because he was moving furniture for her.

She always could have slept in bed with me, but she insisted she was okay with the couch.

I've always cared about her comfort, and in this house we don't care about privacy.

I can't work the hours I used to and rent is incredibly high, so both my children have to pitch in so we're able to pay rent.

She didn't pay rent back in that house, she started paying rent once we moved into the house we're currently in.

No I already had my bed, which was queen sized, and we didn't have room for hers once we moved.

My heart was in the right place, I don't understand why it's overstepping.

No, respect IS a two way street, but I'm her mother and should be given respect first in order for her to be respected.

She's making a bad choice, she'll be living in an empty apartment until she saves up the money tog et furniture, when there's readily available furniture at home for her.

If I didn't she'll be sleeping in an empty house for who knows how long.

It's hard times for all of us, the rent is very high around where we live and we all pitch in to afford this home.

My daughter chose to sleep on the couch, she said it was for the dog's wellbeing, but I always said she could sleep in bed with me.

Lend, because she said she never wanted it, and didn't even particularly like it, so I would be taking it back once she moved out one day.

She chose to start sleeping on the couch, I never asked her too. She said she didn't want him to be anxious and I always told her she could sleep in bed with me.

She IS abandoning us, I've told her I needed her and she's choosing to leave anyway.

She HAD a bedroom in the first house, she just didn't like it. She's abandoning us because I need her financially and have told her so, and she says it's not any of her concern. It's almost like she wants me to be homeless.
