[quote=Anonymous]Has anyone noticed that OP's anger over the hospital issue sort of echoes this fight over phone times? OP is willing to call her mom but on her own terms, and resents being told exactly what she must do to show her love. HOWEVER, OP felt she could dictate exactly how long and how much help her mom had to give her when her kid was ill. It seems to me you guys are each doing the same thing--dictating to each other what the other must do to "prove" their love. You: Mom failed me by refusing to stay exactly as long as I wanted when my kids were sick. I am going to disregard the fact that she did come and help a lot. Mom: If my kid does not call me exactly when and how often I want, she is abandoning me. I don't think you should call your mom on her schedule. But I don't think you should demand that she jump through the hoops you set for her, either. You both should just stop. [/quote]
