While exposure therapy IS the only way you’ll get “over” it she’s going about it so so so wrong I’m sorry

You’re not his mother, tell your mom you’re not handling it and that you’re sorry. I would leave for a bit if you can it’s not fair to be forced to do that

Is he really young or something? Why doesn’t she stay with him in the bathroom and clean up later or just let him chill in the bathroom on his own

she told him to go up to his room and lay down so she could clean up the bathroom, otherwise the floor would’ve stained/smelled and it would’ve been another few hours before my dad got home and he would’ve had to deal with the mess. he’s 21 but he’s autistic and he won’t sit in the bathroom as a “just in case” so he has a bucket with him

Ah that’s tough. Maybe listen to some music with headphones just so you can barely hear if he’s sick, and immediately after you tell her turn up the volume
