[quote=Anonymous]Your mistake was coming back for a short visit :-) I moved half-way across the world from my dear mother, and both before and after, told her exactly how deep-seated anxiety was making her insanely controlling of me. I made it very clear that I would cut her off if she kept harassing me. She got it after a particularly egregious incident which made me cut her off for 6 months. I'm 39 now, married with kids, and when we see each other, I make sure we have lots of activities planned, we avoid staying at her house for too long, and I actually avoid being alone with her for more than a couple of hours. Otherwise I get an earful of how I'm too fat, my husband is a jerk who doesn't earn enough money, my daughter is too fat, my failure-to-thrive tiny and skeletal son is actually just the right size for his age, and that I ruined my life making the decisions I made.
