How Do I Tell My Mum I'm Not In The Care Home Anymore?

[abbeylee90]

My mum still thinks I'm in the care home instead of my current job as I still have days where I can't tell her.

Abbey is genuine.  The Editor has confirmed that.  If you can't give her positive advice or are unwilling to assist, it would be more helpful to stay away from her threads.

I agree Smow.i can't say any more.

I genuinely respect the posters who support abbey but it's really really unfair to not allow anyone to question her on anything, especially equally level headed long term posters who get removed. She never puts her case, nevr answers anything properly and when things get a bit weird she starts another thread with clothes choices.

Of course she is a real person but she has has the same advice and help over and over. The editor comes in and jumps on anything as well as mods. If only the handful of people who like to give the same repeated advice were the ones to answer the AB traffic would reduce and I think that's the way to go.

Morning Countrylover , and everyone :). Prudie I completely agree.

Greyseal - have I missed something? Abbeys mother?? Is she on AB too, or how do you know about her views? I'm confused.

If Abbey is a real person then I apologise in advance. 
I'm with Smow and Lottie on this. I think Abbey is as real as Jogger Jayne (remember her?) who was outed some time ago as being a marketing man called Mark something. 

Sorry, I could just ignore 'her' posts but I hate seeing people made a fool of.

Greywell uses her invesyogative skills from a (past) employment and has seen Abbey's social media/ Facebook  so could easily find mum too on facebook/ linkdin etc

[Countrylover]

Grey seal her Mum could guide her onto a more relevant site with the right trained people who can advise her.For all we know any advice from us may be making life worse for her.  I sympathise if Abbie has problems.

 

I presume you are Floko and know the family well.  You will know that Abbie will get some unpleasant comments on here that won't help her.  Does her Mum realise this?

 

[newmodarmy]

Sorry Greyseal...auto correct changes it to Greywell if I don't spot it

[Countrylover]

I'm with Prudie on this.

Greysal how do you know how my mum describes herself. She wasn't understanding last time

[Moorea7]

08.54 How do you know Greyseal is female (you refer to she)?

[naomi24]

I'm closing this thread to await the Editor's comments.

If you're unable to provide help or advice, or the topic of the thread doesn't interest you, please don't get involved with these threads.

Well said, ABSpareEditor!

Abbey, didn't the subject of your part-time job - you working only 16/17 hours a week - not come up recently when your mum had to help you out financially? I'm sure she didn't mind helping, but I think she deserved to know the truth - ie you weren't in the original job, the second one wasn't going great either and you had barely enough to live on.Did she not ask you then how you were going to manage? It seems a bit unfair to want help while hiding so much from her.

Does your mum think you're at the care home and the laundry? You told us earlier this month that she knows where you're working .
