My mother's arrival will plunge our family into an infinite storm😳💸

My wife and I just settled into our new apartment—boxes everywhere, still arguing over where the coffee mugs should go. Out of nowhere, my mom calls, fresh off a family meltdown, and wants to crash at our place for "just two nights." Here’s the kicker: she’s notorious for blowing through money and making zero plans. Now she’s hinting at moving in for good, like our place is some kind of financial safe haven. I’m stuck—my wife’s okay with a short visit, but I know my mom’s track record. The guilt trip started immediately, and now I’m torn between being a good son and protecting our finances (and sanity). How do you say no without becoming the family villain? Is this the start of a never-ending cycle, or am I just being paranoid? Seriously, what would you do if you were in my shoes? 🏠🔥😩 #FamilyDrama #FinancialBoundaries #InLawIssues #SettingLimits #RomanticRelationships
