Parents will always be protective of their kids. Eventhou you moved back home to take care of her, her mother instincts are for her to take care of you. When you have kids you will better understand it is not as easy to let those instincts disappear simply because your kid is all grown up. I am 47 and my mother is 80, last time I was at the hospital she was there making me comfortable, cutting up my chicken breast into small pieces and all that Mom stuff. But you know what, it made her feel needed and that is what they are seeking regardless of their health. Be patient with her. Instead of arguing with her, calmly say something like, Mom I love you, lets sit down and talk about this situation and calmly tell her how you feel and WHY you feel that way. Then ask her her thoughts and you listen. When you act their age then they realize you're grown up. Good Luck

yes i have to agree with Peace , us moms have this built in instinct to protect our children my son is almost 22 yrs old and its hard letting go and allowing our kids to take some hard knocks in life, we sincerely mean well, even tho we come across as being bossy , butinsky, etc. what shes doin is out of love so a nice talk and a little patience with mom may help :) i wish you the best Gb

mom discovered pictures of my cat on my facebook. I wouldn't think my parents would discover those photos because they are internet illiterate. On 1 night mom investigated me over the phone. She ordered to abandon my cat and have a toxoplasma blood test. note the word ordered. I declined. money is tight and i have other priority. Disappointed by the answer she claimed had never either disappointed or broken my heart. that's big lie. Since that day our relationship has become distant.

My mother likes to jump on the hood of my car rip the antena off and starting hitting the windshield with it, but what makes it so special is she likes to do it while im in the car. Its a real bonding experience

a mother will NEVER, no matter how much you grow or change, forget you were her baby girl. all the time, all the energy, all the care, all the memories are not forgotten. but i know, it can be annoying and stressful as an adult with your OWN life to live with her. it hasn't worked in my experience but maybe sitting down with her and telling her how what she says and does makes you feel and give her suggestions on how she could treat you as a grown child
