[quote=Anonymous]Can you have a separate discussion with the therapist? Something clearly isn't right here with her, and you can't shoulder her burdens. Discuss with therapist how to best present your boundaries. Draw up something in writing. Commit to something - I will talk to you once a week on the phone. I will send you pictures as I am able. Something. But the rest of it - you have to be able to say, this is what I am doing for my vacation. I won't discuss it any longer, I love you, and goodbye (if she continues to press it). Read up on setting boundaries, and then set them, and if mother pushes past, shut her off. Teach her to respect your boundaries. [/quote]
