[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom is an expert at revisionist history. Sorry your mom has thrown some your way. No advice, just understanding of this situation.[/quote] Mine is too. Don't give her a reaction. Instead just give her a vacant look as though maybe you didn't hear it and walk away or calmly change the topic. Sometimes when my mother is being a jerk I just look at my watch. For some reason crazy mothers want a reaction. If they have any symptoms of a personality disorder getting a reaction gives them a high. Recently my mother started doing her BS rewriting history, trying to guilt trip and just being a jerk. I looked at my husband and calmly said, "are you ready to go?" We were polite, got our kids and left. I gave no comment or reaction to her nastiness. I just did pleasantries and got the F out of there. She behaved better for longer the next time. In my own home, I would just get out of the room and let her be alone for a while.[/quote]
