[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Yes, I know I could turn up just to make her happy. But where does it end? I am already compromising by agreeing to accompany her to her hospital appointments just because she wants to show me off to her doctors (she actually said that she wants me to come to show that she isn't abandoned, which is what she says some of them think of her- it just sounds so shallow but I think it's more reasonable than attending some prayer session). I went with her to see her therapist today, and it was a carthatic experience for me articulating about our relationship to this stranger but it actually backfired because my mom accuses me of embarrassing her and divulging the fact that we had a bedbugs infestation brought on by her hoarding. I can't change my mom and I know that. But I hate her attempts to change me. I'm already conceding to some of her demands about dress (I once wore bermuda shorts to see my grandma in a home, and she berated me over it even though my grandma had dementia and didn't even remember my name). Yes, I guess this does belong in Family Relationships. How do I get it changed?[/quote]
