Today, the day after my grandfather's funeral, my grandmother informed me I have 30 days to move out. I've been living with them for four years, helping take care of my sick grandfather. She's already changed the locks and won't unlock the door. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my grandma moved in with us. Along with her 36-year-old boyfriend that none of us knew about. FML
Today, I found out that my grandparents are going to take my car away and sell it because they're pissed I'm moving in with my boyfriend. FML
Today, I got word that my aunt has dementia and will be moving into our big family estate. And just like with my grandpa, grandma, great-aunt, great-uncle, other grandma, father, and uncle, I will be expected to put my life on hold and be her primary caretaker. I never got my own life. FML
Today, my mom gave me thirty days notice to find an apartment and move out. Why? She's dating my former best friend and wants to move him in, but he won't do it until I'm gone because it would be "awkward." FML
Today, without telling me, my mom dropped me off at my grandmother's house, and drove off. Now I'm supposed to spend the next month with her. Guess she forgot my grandma died six weeks ago. FML
Today, my in-laws moved in. FML
Today, I came home from work to find my grandmother in my living room, demanding to know where I'd been all day. I'm 22 and live by myself. She stole my mother's emergency key to get in. FML
Today, my mother-in-maw informed us that she sold her house and is moving in with us so we'll "take care" of her in old age. She's in perfect health. We've only been married for 4 months. My wife can't stand her for more than 2 weeks at a time, let alone living with us. FML
Today, my mother-in-law told my fiancé that I had to leave and wasn’t allowed to live there anymore. I own the house. She’s mad because I locked the door so she couldn't walk in anytime she wanted. FML
Today, after moving hundreds of miles to take care of my beloved grandmother and working like mad for a week to make the house cozy and accessible for her, it was finally time to bring her home. Or it would have been, if she hadn’t died in her sleep last night. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Let her know not to expect you to come back to take care of her when she needs help.

That's just nasty. OP probably someone without a job and a place to stay, so it was convenient to move in with an excuse. Now that the excuse isn't there anymore, she's acting like a true parent and kicking out the bird to go survive the world without their protection. Strongest will survive.

There seems to be no shortage of ****** up dysfunctional families on FML.

Well, depending on how hard you want to fight it and where you are located you could probably make her life difficult. Don't know if you are a vindictive sort but her changing the locks before you move is illegal and you can call the cops about it if you have proof that you live there. She has to give you a written 30 day notice and even then you could drag your feet to the point that she has to take it to court (but if you lose it will be on your record.) Either way she is an ungrateful old bat and I am sorry she's acting that way.

It’s her grandson. They probably didn’t have a rental agreement.

You don’t need a rental agreement. After living there for a certain amount of time it’s unofficial agreement and they need to give a 30-day notice. It may or may not be the case where they live but some places have this law.

In my state, Delaware, you cannot force someone to move out by changing the locks, it's illegal due to tenant law. And I need a written notice for 60 days and if it's delivered to me past the 5th day of the month, that current month doesn't count and 60 days starts on the next month. I also need 90 days notice if any part of my rental space is not to be accessible to me anymore. Check your local laws on how you can legally be evicted, call the cops if you have to, and if Grandma needs help in her time of need she'll remember this because you won't be her live in caretaker.
