Yeah, don't give in to the urge to blow up if you can help it. Blowing up just reinforces the notion (in my mom anyway) that she's right, she's the victim, I'm overreacting, I'm ungrateful, I'm a b****, etc etc. The only thing she learns from it is that she can use that as yet more "evidence" for what an ungrateful child I am.
Why are your nieces and nephew exposed to your mom that much?
