[quote=Anonymous]As 10:26 said, get this book: Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents by Lindsay Gibson. I got it from the library, convinced my DH to read it, and then we bought it because we both need it (both of our widowed parents think that our lives should revolve around them). You need to learn boundaries and to stop caring about her guilt trips. To those who say they miss their moms, that's YOUR experience. When your mother is badgering and smothering you, you don't feel as though you'll miss it, even for one day. OP - detach, detach, detach. Good luck![/quote]
