[quote=Anonymous]Oh OP, placating her now is NOT going to make things easier down the road. Read that again. You do not have to be responsible for her daily care if a time comes when she needs that. Read that again. You CAN say “mom I need to end this conversation now. I will be hanging up. I will call in one week” AND THEN HANG UP. You CAN do that. Nothing will change in how she acts. I’d bet money (and I’m poor!) that it will not worsen her behavior and it will improve your life. YOU MATTER. [/quote]
