[QUOTE="1905, post: 425156, member: 2668"] Don't even mention gift...if she does, ask her where your Mother's Day gift is. If she isn't hitting rock bottom at this point, you need to move the rock bottom up to where she is,....no more anything. Of course you and difficult child are happy to see her for some pleasant conversations. Don't engage her, you'll never win because she won't see reason. I know how hard it is not to engage, but you don't want to set yourself up for more abuse from her, and she seems to love that. It's totally not ok for her to behave that way. If she starts her nonsense, just say, "This conversation is over." Say that in the most calm voice ever, repeat. Also if she starts asking you a bunch of questions over and over, tell her the answer 1 time and then say, "I answered that already". every time she asks. [/QUOTE]
