[quote=Anonymous]OP, you have gotten some great advice on here and some very useful phrases to employ to deflect and distract your mom. I would add: Take a moment to draw a very deep breath and be grateful that she lives four hours away and no closer. Look at the posts on DCUM about parents and in-laws who live in the same area as the posters and who barge into the house or expect to see the grandkids ALL the time. At least you have physical distance. I know that doesn't help, if you still feel crummy where she's concerned, but she at least is not going to turn up on the doorstep every day insisting she take the kids out, or coming inside to criticize your day to day routine. Distance can be a blessing. [/quote]
