[quote=Anonymous]OP, 45 minutes is too much. Even 30 is pushing it with her behavior. I'd try giving her 15 minutes and then a cheery, "okay, Mom, I have to go. Bye!" and then you *hang up first*. Will she like it? No. But she wouldn't like anything that involves you setting a boundary. Focus on what YOU need and not what will please HER, because the answer to the latter is nothing.[/quote]
