Is there any way you can ask her to sit down and just TELL her how you feel? Can you tell her that her constant "put downs" and criticisms and smart answers are hurting you? Sometimes having a serious conversation with our parents makes them see what they're doing. She might not see you as the mature 22 yr old that you are. She may be used to treatiing you as the young person that you WERE -- and of course she should NEVER have treated you that way, but she got into the habit of it. It's time to get her OUT of that habit!

I don't know what you think about talking to her, but I would sure TRY. She might get mad, or smart mouthed again, but at least I could say I tried.

I wish you the very best! God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
