I’m 22 years old and also a student. I’ve never really had a close relationship with my mum while growing up, and it’s something I tried my best to overcome. I tried getting along with her just 3-4 years ago, which actually makes me cringe sometimes, but I’ve tried to adjust over the years. Now she has gotten too close to me that she crosses a lot of boundaries. I don’t know if it’s just me; she always wants to discuss my relationship life. In fact, it’s the only thing that comes to her mind when talking to me, and I find it very uncomfortable. Aside from that, she always wants me to bring money, give her money, or buy her things. Note (we’re not poor); she just feels like I’m old enough to start doing things for her. The amount of pressure she puts on me is too much. She feels like I can just put a call on any guy to send me any amount of money, and they’ll send it, and we all know how such things work out nowadays, which I don’t want to get involved in. Whenever I say I don’t have money, she would start saying, ‘Big girl like you no get money; your mates are always buying something when coming back home, this or that,’ like I’m so tired that sometimes I don’t feel like going home. What should I do please? I’ve tried talking to her, but she always wants to quarrel, saying I’m being disrespectful.
