What should I do with my mom?
Okay, so me and my mother haven't ever been great friends or anything. But lately (within the last year), she's been making some pretty irresponsible decisions. For example, last February she moved to Missouri with my dad (she lived here with me in California, and her and my dad divorced years ago and had been together this last time for only three months), and by April, she and my dad were finished. By May, she was getting involved with a married man (sure, they were getting a divorce, but they were still married). She's working two jobs and never has any money for food because she spends most of her money on cigarrettes and energy drinks. She's always saying she'll come to California the summer of '09 but I highly doubt it. I'm stressing out about her so much because she barely contacts me, and recently she didn't have a phone, so I didn't know if she was okay or not. I don't want all this stress and drama in my life anymore...
So what do I do?
I can't go see her. I'm on welfare and I barely have money for my family. Plus, I have no car or license.

you should try to let her make her own mistakes she is an adult and so are you . try not to worry about things you can not change just take care of your own family. if she cares she will come when she is ready.life is to short to worry about a grown woman

Maybe you should go visit her and have a long talk about how much she is worrying you and just tell her straight up that she;s being irresposible and that she needs to get her act together before something serious happens.

If she is still in Missouri, I would try and get a hold of your dad. Maybe there is something he can do or at least let you know how she is doing.

You should do nothing your mum is an adult she should be able to look after herself you nead to worry about your family they are your main priority at the moment. I know its hard but you have got to let her contact you and until she does you have to consentrate on making christmas the best it can be for you and your family.
best o luck hun
