[quote=Anonymous] Limit contact. The truth is, she annoys you because she's your mother. Try to be as tolerant as you possibly can, and model that for your children. I can barely tolerate my mother, for the following reasons: 1. She continually criticizes everybody. 2. She nags and gets agitated at the drop of a hat. 3. She's pathologically controlling towards my father and myself. 4. She's a bit stupid, which make the above activities often unbearable. SOLUTION: 1. We don't live on the same side of the Atlantic. 2. While I call her often, I have this trick of pulling the receiver away from my ear and rolling my eyes when she says something really terrible. Then I catch up on the rest of her conversation. 3. Since I can't do this in her presence, I do my best to see her as rarely as I can, while still seeing my dear father. Sadly, they are inseparable. [/quote]
