[QUOTE="Farmwife, post: 349103, member: 8617"] My Mother still treats me like a child too. Makes me crazy sometimes. If she can't trust that she raised me to think for myself why on earth should I trust her opinions? Um, helloooooo.:knockedout: My Mom is a staunch defender of difficult child's rights and needs but then is a classic minimizer and enabler. She spoils him, lets him deviate from his routine (so so so not the thing to do) and lets him manipulate her. Anytime she watches him we know she will be too soft and cover for him. Then we have weeks of repair. I like my Mom most of the time but thank goodness she lives over 1000 miles away. Two visits a year is all I can handle because the difficult child fallout is massive. JUST had a visit last week...difficult child is a mess. I guess I don't have any advice. Just wanted you to know a lot of Moms are *ahem* a pleasure. I also have a more selfish reason for posting. If you figure out how to deal with your Mom could you please tell me the secret?:angel3: [/QUOTE]
