[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 364279, member: 2459"] I really think you should pull that list out with the detatchment phrases and use them on your mother. "I'm sorry you feel that way Mom" "That's quite the personal question." "I'm sorry to hear that" "I'm sure you'll figure something out" And then change the subject or hang up. Notice I said hang up as in ...on the phone and NOT in person. I think you need to (for YOU) just not see them for a bit. Partly for your own sake and partly to get your point across to your mom. If she pitches a fit, keep your cool and use difficult child tactics on her. "I'm sorry you're upset, but X is the rule and Y is the consequence" and then go on with your day. Know what I mean?? Hugs. I'm sure this hurts and is difficult but I know you can do it! [/QUOTE]
