US EditionAsking Eric: Am I the Bad Guy for Not Wanting to Store My Son’s Family’s Junk Any Longer?
- A 77-year-old author receiving SSDI, who lived in a charming house for 20 years, faces impending homelessness after selling the home.
- The author and spouse moved closer to grown children after their son and family lost housing when their landlord died, prompting them to shelter the family temporarily.
- Although the son's family relocated months ago, they left half of the garage full of belongings they have not retrieved for nine months, while a defunct pool remains in the yard.
- The author expresses thoughts of ending their life and worries about causing trouble for others, while being encouraged to reach out to the 988 Crisis Lifeline, which offers around-the-clock support from trained listeners.
- The author feels exhausted and pressured, believes the family might be taking advantage, but is urged to seek help from loved ones as the problems are difficult but not insurmountable.
