As for the comments, my shrink says that 99% of the time when people criticize they are actually projecting what they feel about themselves. So, when she tells you that you are a bad mother, what she really means is that she thinks she is a bad mother. The way I handle it with my mother is to change the subject by complimenting her. It works like a charm. Literally act like she has said nothing horrible at all and then ask her for her wonderful chicken recipe or whatever. She'll be flattered and the subject will change and she will start to think you are great because who doesn't love people who compliment them? [/quote]
Wow, you are definitely a better person than me.  There is NO WAY I could do that.  But, I do give you credit for being the bigger person![/quote]
Just try it once.  Just for fun.  You might be amazed at how not stooping to the existing lowly behavior, or "being the bigger person" as you say, can work and work for a lifetime.  [/quote]
