[quote=Anonymous]To quote an exchange from Frasier: Therapist: "I'm hearing that your relatives are a source of anger for you." Daphne: "So? Aren't yours?" Therapist: "Well they might be if I still talked to any of them!" In all seriousness, I get it OP. I'm a primary breadwinning working mom with a long-hours demanding job, and I deal with all of the "issues" that come with it. Especially from my family, who I do think mean well (certainly I don't have the outright vitriol of your mom), but simply can't understand a "mom" working the way I do. You just have to let go of their judgment, someway, somehow. I've come to believe that my parents and siblings are literally incapable of understanding me and my choices, so why get bent out of shape when they demonstrate as much?[/quote]
