How to navigate multi-generational living arrangements that have outlived their purpose

My partner and I moved in with my elderly mother during COVID and never moved out, and now we're all stuck in patterns that aren't working for anyone. Mom feels like we're taking over her space, we feel like we can't have our own life, and nobody knows how to talk about it without someone feeling abandoned or resentful.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
