[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you cannot cut ties now, why don't you confront her and tell her to stop? Point out when she does it. Tell her you won't continue the conversation. If she doesn't stop, don't engage in conversations with her. [/quote] In my vast experience (sadly not ironic), confrontation with somebody determined to treat you the way they choose to treat you only leads to them escalating. IMO, changing your behavior without telling her a thing about it is the only thing that works. Working with a therapist who can help you strategize, think through and implement change was helpful for me. Life changing even. I am a big, big fan of silence, and non sharing of information with habitual abusers, which is what your mom is. If she doesn't know it, she can't criticize it ( well, not with your help anyway).[/quote]
