[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this normal? I am livid. I don't want to overreact but I never talked to my mom like this. FYI this came about because she did not brush her teeth and her breath smelled bad. She is about to visit a friend [b]so my purpose is to be helpful.[/b] What to do? She is way to old to spank and I tried the I am cancelling get together--got a whatever back. I am reluctant to cancel because this child is an only child [b]with some anxiety[/b] and I don't want to cause her family problems. [/quote] If you told her about her smelly breath in a way that fed into her anxiety, then you were partly to blame. Of course, calling you a jerk is not an appropriate response, but you may need to pick your battles here. I certainly have to pick my battles with my anxious kid..[/quote]
