I don't want to be in the middle between mom and brother?
So my mom and my brother's girlfriend don't like each other. So my brother to keep the peace has blocked my mom from calling their phone. She also can't come over to his house. When he wants to talk to her he calls her or go over to visit. The problem is everytime my mom wants to talk to my brother she will call me to call him to call her. I was ok with it in the beginning but now its just annoying. Its all the time. Its been 4 months already. Should I say something or just do it anyway?

Say something and set your boundaries with the both of them.
They are acting immature which is fine for them until it inconveniences you.

You have every right to set boundaries with your mother. Have them use email or facebook each other.

My mom used to use me as a sounding board regarding a brother who came to live at her house "for one year to get out of debt" and stayed for over 7, never paying her any rent and expecting her to give up more and more of her house as he got married and had 3 children. I used to listen and agree that it wasn't cool for him to do this until one day I got tired of it. I told her it was her house and she was the only one who could put her foot down. If she wasn't willing to do anything about it then she was just going to have to put up with it and not come to me any more about it because I couldn't do anything about it. She stopped talking to me about it and I wished I had said something much earlier.
