[quote=Anonymous]Hello OP, I can empathize. I went through a phase where I felt compelled to correct my mother when she was triggering me (she plays favorites & also 'forgets' that certain topics are painful for me). Now I don't do it all that much, but when I do, I am typically a little amused. It really took my realizing that she is a) never going to change, b) somewhat unaware of her behavior (unlike you, I don't really think my mom's trying consciously to get under my skin), and c) definitely so different from me that I might as well be observing like PPs Goodall. She still sometimes makes me upset, & thanks to covid, usually I can just come up with a pretext to bow out of whatever phone call that is & tag her back later when I have just exercised or have a big pour of wine in hand. GL! Much empathy. [/quote]
