[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 96902, member: 3388"] Sharon, When I was younger, I had similar problems with my mother always trying to make me feel guilty. Nothing I ever did was good enough for her. It took me years to realize that while I couldn't change her behavior, I could change how I responded to it. Honestly, I think it would have taken me longer than it did if it weren't for my difficult children creating so much chaos that I knew I had to do what was best for my easy child, difficult children, husband, and myself before following my mother's wishes. Sorry I missed this. However, the others have already given you great advice. And, from reading your response, I think you're totally on top of things. You've definitely conquered the "laying on the guilt" routine that mothers' do so well!!! WFEN [/QUOTE]
