How do I ask my mom to put her stuff away?

Question

My mom isn't very organized, so there are papers and bills lying around everywhere. Whenever I start to clean it up, she just says "leave it, I'll find a spot". She never does though, and it just stays there. If I try to talk to her, she just gets mad and says its my fault because I never put my stuff away, but its really her stuff. What do I do?

Answer 1

get some folders and mark each one i.e. master card, utility, gas etc . . . put them in a stand up organizer.  She will see that you worked very hard to organize her and maybe, possibly, fingers crossed she will continue the practice.

Answer 2

You are stuck as long as you live with her. Just take care of your things, study hard to get a good job so you can move out and have your own neat, organized and clean place.

Answer 3

dont touch it cuz then she will complain
