Here’s how I changed that dynamic with my mom...

You may want to consider a different job?
Or make them aware that you don’t like talking about your job.

Does your mom make you pay rent at home?

You’ll appreciate it someday. When you have kids and you say to yourself I’m going to do it different than my parents did I’m going to do it better and then you’ll have that moment where it’s not so easy and you’ll think of your mom wherever she is and be happy she tried every single day. maybe she didn’t knock it out…

So you being an adult now, it seems like maybe you could talk to your mom about other stuff and avoid this conversation that’s irking you right? Like, come on home and ask her how HER day was or something?

Not for nothing, but how often do you engage her and start a conversation about her day and interests?
