[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Limit contact with your mother. You don’t have to cut her out of her life, but you can absolutely minimize your interactions with her and hers with your child.[/quote] I do. I’m already pretty low contact with her as it is. [/quote] I would just keep doing this-- it will get easier as your child ages. Activities, homework, friends will make it simple to forego time with your mom. If your child is extremely upset around your mother, I will cut off contact altogether --your mom sounds toxic, so I wouldn't get into any deep discussions about her behavior. I have some dysfunctional family members as well-- trying to get them to self-reflect has always made things so much worse (defensiveness, playing the victim, fake/theatric overcompensation that will hurt your child's feelings even more...).
