[quote=Anonymous]Well the daily phone calls and criticism of your financial decisions can be easily remedied by not letting her know he'll be out of town (you can tell her once he returns) and not offering up specifics on your finances. My dad, who's actually pretty hands off, was getting on my nerves with unsolicited financial advice - so I just don't give specifics anymore. You can also return one phone call for every two you get. But otherwise, I have an aunt much like what you describe - when I go to visit, she reminds me to wash my hands, finish my food, was furious when I was packing up from a visit and didn't have room for all the stuff she wanted me to lug home. An aunt is different than a parent, but we've had to limit the kind of visits we do with her. The last time we visited, she was bullying my husband in front of our daughter and I just can't sign up to expose my child to that, even though I feel bad for my aunt who's clearly lonely. [/quote]
