Sometimes it's really easy to sit behind our keyboards or phones and judge other people and their life choices. But if we think a bit harder about certain situations and try to imagine what we would have done in those scenarios, we might just realize that some decisions are much harder to make than it seems.
I can safely say I have no idea what I would have done in the scenario presented in this Reddit story. I love my mom, and I like to think I would have done anything in my power to make her happy, even if that meant living with her as an adult and paying her rent. If I knew that giving her $1000 would have helped her and that living with her would make her feel less lonely, I wouldn't think twice. But what if she was using the money I was giving her to simply fund her frugal lifestyle, and occasionally leave it lying around the house? Would I still be fine with it? Or would I consider moving out and refusing to help her? Now those are questions I have no answer for.
