[quote=Anonymous]I had a much milder form of this for awhile with my mom. She's hardly the terror your mom is, but I used to get a very disapproving vibe from her about my older child. I didn't make any announcements, but I stopped sharing details about what was going on with us. I stayed friendly, but vague, because I didn't want to get into it with her. And a couple of years later, when those issues seemed less concerning, I went back to normal. Especially since your mom is long distance, this can work for you. Obviously Thanksgiving will be a pain, and others here have provided good ways to cope with that, but going forward you can be cheerful and newsy on the phone. But vague. You need to sell it though.[/quote]
