[quote=Anonymous] Most people won't get it. They will typically project their good relationships with their own moms. The best thing to do is to not emphasize your estrangement. Instead, act like you do have a minimal relationship with her. In other words, when others are making a big deal about holiday celebrations, etc. that would include their moms, try not to bring up your own estrangement and refocus the attention on them (which is what most people want anyway). When people pry, tell them that your mom travels a lot or is out of the country, for example. Save yourself from giving details about the real reason since it's nobody's business anyway.[/quote]
