I’m 30F single, living alone. I’m born in the UK but moved to the US for work a couple years ago. I don’t get to see my parents (West African, in their 60s)as often since I’m abroad but I speak on the phone with them usually every other day. The problem is that when they come to visit they usually stay much longer than I’m comfortable with because of the 7 hour flight. My mum is currently staying with me in my 700sq ft 1 bed apartment and her trip here will last for 16 days. She doesn’t have anything else to do here since she’s only here to visit me. All she does is just stay in my apartment and cook and watch TV. I have an active dating life which I have to put on hold now she’s here, she’s very judgmental of marijuana which I have to stop when she’s here which also puts me on edge a little as well, she watches the things I eat closely and will voice her disapproval a lot if she thinks it’s unhealthy. I love my mother and I feel bad since I moved away and she doesn’t get to see me much. but she can be very overbearing and I want to voice to her the next time she visits she should book the trip for 7 days max. Afraid of hurting her feelings. AITA?
