[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Mom, if Janie and I talking to you on FaceTime doesn't work for you, by all means, we can stop the calls. Jim sometimes says hi, but he's got other things to do, and yeah, sometimes Janie would rather not be on a call. What with her being THREE and all. So if all you're going to do is complain and be 'concerned,' I'll end these calls because they've become a tiresome chore for me. If you can be content with the calls, let me know. It's entirely up to you. If you complain again, I'll know you don't want these calls anymore."[/quote]

God I hate these suggested dialogues.  Do people really speak to other people like this?  This is snotty and childish and passive aggressive.[/quote]

So is OP's mom's behavior. She is literally being snotty and childish and passive aggressive. She can be on the receiving end. For once.[/quote]

Yes, that's the answer.  (It's not.)

Many of you need therapy.[/quote]

You're triggered because you hate that people are finally standing up to bullies. [/quote]

Not really.  And that's not an effective way to stand up to a bully anyway.   Be direct and firm and set boundaries and then keep your boundaries.  That suggested response just continues a pattern of immature sniping and toxicity.  [/quote]
