I'm really conflicted right now.......

I mean yeah she shouldnt cut yall off...but people deal with things different ways. You should know your mom well enough to know how she may react to something like this. So maybe your brother shoulda waited to the break the news or break it in a different way.But I understand what you are saying tho. My mom might would react in an irrational manner also...all you can do is let things cool down at the moment, and let her cool down until she realizes she has no choice but to accept this...and its not worth all the bitterness, anger, and negative emotions that she is showing right now. Hopefully she will come along and learn to accept things for how they are.

^^^ COsigns.. Right now, she is being selfish beuase that's the best way she can deal with it.. She may be feeling that she failed as a mother, or might not have been there enuff for your bro (Don't ask me,... people actually feel like that).. Pray for her and just let her know that you love her and so do your bros, and that she is still needed and appreciated.. SHe should come around eventually... but if she is infact serious about the selling the house thing, the nyou need to step in and give her a reality check and tell her that she has not completed her job as your mother and that she needs to face her responsibilities.. Sometimes a strong hand worx best...

i wont say i understand what you're going through because i have never walked in your shoes but i do understand having a mother that does something totally irrational and places u in the situation where you have to choose between her and and your family..but thats another story for another day, yes she shouldnt cut yall off like that because as you said you're brother is still the same person regardless of his preference, continue to be there for your brother and make an attempt to reach out to your mother and if she continues to withdraw from you all then there is nothing u can do she has to come to terms with this herself and face up with reality, my prayers will be with u and ur family good luck and godspeed

i think you just need to keep trying to talk to your her. is there a more rational person that she trusts who you could bring in as a kind of mediator?

I think u have every right to be angry

why is she mad with YOU

She'll eventually get over it. But damn son ya brother is a ****! :? That's not cool.
