[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks everyone for your responses. It helped a lot. I basically ignored her behavior for the past few days and pretended like everything was fine. She acted okay in front of my daughter and just did it to me when we were alone. I had apologized (twice that night, when we had the incident) and as far as I was concerned that was the end of it. I think it must have worked because she finally cracked tonight and told me why she was still upset. I didn't apologize again but told her I understood why she was upset (seemed like a lame reason, but whatever) and that I had not intended to make her feel the way I had. Seems like her temper tantrum is over.

Thanks again for the support because I just can't believe I'm still dealing with this crap. [b]She gave me the silent treatment a lot when I was a kid but[/b] its been a while since she's done it to me and I'm glad I found a way to break the cycle. At least this time. [/quote]

That is just messed up. I'm sorry that happened to you OP. Glad you were able to keep your head up this time and not "feed the monster." Print out/save this this thread and keep it close by for when mom visits again. You will be able to handle her again. [/quote]
