Anyway, I hope it all works out.  I wouldn't turn anyone out on the street but 'might' be a tiny bit of a nag if I think money is owed.  :>)  Sometimes I'm a nag without even meaning to.  

Hang in there.  I sincerely hope it gets better.

Hm.  Well, are you guys behind in your rent?  If you live there too, then you aren't really in the middle of it but also behind in the rent.  We have a rental property and if a couple lives there, I don't just talk to the male but talk to whoever I run into or get on the line if they're late on rent.  And we are really firm, rent is due when it is due and if it is late, there is a late charge.  And if it is not paid by the end of the month, we begin discussing that eviction.  

so, my point is this . . .  paying rent and being on time with it is part of responsible even if it is paid to one's mom.  It's taking advantage of her to expect anything different in my opinion.  

Just being honest with you.  If someone is an adult and they have an arrangement to pay rent, then it is pretty cut and dry.  If the person chooses to do you a favor and cut you some slack, then that is to be appreciated.  And that person does have a right in my opinion to ask when they'll be paid if money is owed.  Even if it is mom. She may need the money or be concerned about her son being responsible and grown up.  

good luck

Tell her you dont get i the middle of it, and you guys dont discuss finances, so you dont know and theres no point in askjng. That would make me mad too.
