[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, OP. I would be absolutely mortified too. And, I’d be royally peeved at my mother for NOT respecting MY boundary. As I see it, your only recourse is to NOT invite her next Summer and explain very clearly WHY. She can have a major temper tantrum but you have to be firm and not cave. My MIL is very similar to your mother. She ran roughshod on our boundaries for years until DH sat her down and calmly told her she was uninvited for the foreseeable future due to her rude behavior. Well, guess what? Suddenly, she was able to respect our boundaries. It’s not that they can’t respect boundaries, it’s that they’re pushy and overbearing until they are told they can’t be. Exhausting! Good luck[/quote]
