Okay so my boyfriend and his mother one hundred percent do not get along. He is a good person that likes to push the boundaries, rarely crosses them, but does push them. His mother is a control freak to the point of craziness and she does not trust nor respect her son. Her son in return does not trust and respect her. They have ongoing fights, not once have I heard him say something to his mother in a kind tone, and his mother always speaks to him in a condescending tone. He is the kinda guy that if he does something wrong he will admit it, but when it comes to his mother he is always right and that is what they fight about who is right and wrong. He received his license in may and he was told that he was not allowed to drive friends until august 31st. That is understandable, but he did. He drove his best friend literally half a mile down the road and got a sandwich and then went right back, they didn't drive to new york or the beach or anything, just to a convenient store and back. And she took his car away for six weeks, SIX WEEKS, for that. I can completely understand that he needs to be punished, so one week, two weeks maybe, NOT SIX. One time I was over for dinner and I was listening to her two other kids help make dinner and every single action they did was wrong, Charlie you are cutting those tomatoes wrong, Amy that is not how you set a table. She is the most controlling and frustrating person I know.
So my question is, how can i help these two without hurting them or seeming like I can't mind my own business. Something has to change because she is literally losing her son. The second he turns eighteen he is literally moving out of the house, changing everything into his name and is prepared to pay for it all. In ten years I am scared that these two will be eating thanksgiving in two separate houses.
So how can I help them???
