You just have to deal with that, everyone get it...just help her even ask when she don't expect you to, then maybe she'll stop

She gave birth to you, I think it's ok for her to ask something simple of you.

Stop complaining about it and just do it. She provides you food, clothing, housing, and love. You'd think you can handle doing some things to help her.

OK. I don't think you were complaining about helping her, unless I'm misreading this. I think you were asking for help on how to get her to be more open or tell you when she needs help. If that's the case, then my suggestion is to do exactly that. Tell her that sometimes you won't know if she needs help so she needs to do a better job of asking and that you'll do a better job of being more available to help.

Most of you are reading this wrong. He has no problem helping her, he's saying she should ask when she needs help, not just leave it up to him to guess.

Well do just that. Ask her if she would be nicer when she wants your help and you will be nicer as well.

My take would be ask her before she asks or grumbles.
It would also help the situation if you start doing some work without you asking her what to do or her asking. Example mops the floor, dump the rubbish bag, scrub the toilet, wash the dishes and etc. Let her see you in action.
Hope this helps.

I agree with the earlier posters having read it wrong. From what I can make of the situation you have no problem helping and will do so when asked. I think that the only way to solve your problem is to tell your mom that you need her to tell you when she needs a hand more often or make it clearer that she would like some help so you can then offer to help.

Get off your ass and do it. She is your mother, she can tell you to do whatever.

I will bold it so people can read it.
HE IS SAYING THAT HE HAS NO PROBLEM HELPING, BUT HIS MOM THINKS HE SHOULD AUTOMATICALLY KNOW WHEN SHE NEEDS HELP, AND THAT FRUSTRATES HIM.

I agree with this, what I mean is your mother is telling you to do stuff that you should do without being asked to....Like cleaning the house, if you notice that your house is dirty and messy then clean it, sometimes you should do these things without being told at.....:clap::clap:

Just ask her everytime you walk past if she is ok, if she needs anything done.
