[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is there to talk about? And why so often? You call once a week, and when the conversation gets ugly, you hang-up. You have to go. What's so hard about that? You meet monthly (if they live close) or several times a year (if further away) for a meal out. You excuse yourself and have to leave if the conversation gets ugly.[/quote] This. I don’t understand how your parents’ silly criticisms about your furniture or neighborhood bother you so much. I personally would do what the PP above suggests. Scale back and keep it simple. Going “no contact” is a social media trend that is incredibly cruel. And all because they poo-pooed your stuff? There is an entire generation of older women who do this; I would not take is personally in the least. My MIL does it. Who cares! They’re old. [/quote]
