[quote=Anonymous]How about directly calling it out in the moment? “You’re giving the vibe of being afraid someone is going to shoot you. Are you ok?” Go from there. If she spews some nonsense about being afraid of you, just be matter of fact in your responses. She sounds mentally ill, to be honest and without knowing the previous behavior. Proceed as you would with anyone who is mentally ill. If you need to pull back, pull back. Also, I’m not sure how old your kids are but if they’re on the younger side, I wouldn’t brought them to the lunch without knowing how/whether your mother was going to behave. [/quote]
