[quote=Anonymous]I used to reinforce this stuff with my mom and it got worse. Now my response would be Me: "Just to be clear, you don't want us to come, is that correct?" Mom: fish for compliments, fish for compliments. Me: I am at work and have to go because I have a meeting. I need a final answer. Do you want us to come or not?" Mom: "Yes, come." Then when I see her I am cheerful and do not mention the interaction. If she gets too needy, negative and manipulative I say "Great seeing you mom! We have to leave for X, Y, Z"[/quote]
