[quote=Anonymous]OP, all you can change is yourself. You have to say "no" and accept the fact that she will get mad at you. You can't make her see your point of view. You can't make her not get mad. But you can learn that it's okay for you to set limits with people even if they get mad. My mom wasn't any where as bad as yours but I did find that once I set limits on the things that really bothered me (her constantly telling me my father was a loser) that I eventually came to feel some compassion for her. Can't promise this would happen to you but I can tell you that it won't happen if you keep giving in to her emotional blackmail. And I agree with the poster who said this has nothing to do with her being a boomer! I'm a boomer myself. Good luck with this. Hope it gets better.[/quote]
