Would you be annoyed if your mum did this and what would be your reaction?

Lastnight she said to me she was going to her friends house, she came back with a man. I opened the front door to find a man standing behind her I had never even seen before. Apparently her friend tried to set her up with him. So me and my sister had no waning or knowledge that a man was going to come back. We didn't know his name or who he was as he's never been to the house before. The thing that really annoyed me is that they both went to bed together! He let him in her bed on the first night he had been to our house and me or my sister don't even know who he is an my mum has not told us anything about him and never told us she had met someone. I heard them kissing and obviously if she took him to bed it was only for one thing or else she would've just let him stay on the sopha down stairs. She came in to my bedroom pretending she didn't want him there and I was thinking 'if you really didn't want him in your bed you would not have him in your bed' its really annoyed me as this is how she usually introduces guys.. She sneaks them in and they end up staying over every night and me and my sister do not know them so we feel awkward in our own house. I would've liked her to tell me and my sister there is going to be a guy, not just sneak him in to bed. Would this make you angry?

    Yes...it would make me angry and to be honest with you the same thing happened to me with my Mum when I was much younger. I didn't realise at the time but my Mum felt rubbish about herself and her situation and she picked up a guy who was an a-hole and thought it was okay to practically move him in - unfortunately her decision had some devastating consequences which I won't go into but the point is if your mother acts like filth then she will only attract filth and is this what she wants for her children? The lesson she is teaching you is that it is okay to pick someone up and sleep with them of the first date because sex is the only way to keep hold of a man? Talk to her, say you are ashamed that she behaves this way and would she wish the same for you and your sister? Ask her whether she can find someone that might be interested in her rather than getting laid - can't she meet someone and date them rather than giving it all up on the first date. Ask her, do you want love or sex? What she is doing isn't fair, isn't safe and isn't right but you need to approach this gently because you mum probably isn't in a good place in her head to be behaving like this. I hope this helps you and good luck x
