My mom and dad have been divorced almost 10 years now. My mom never really said mean things about my dad, and there was a while when my dad wasn't part of my life. Now that he is part of it, my mom says incredibly hurtful things to me about him. She has admitted at one point that she was jealous, but that hasn't stopped her from being mean. I'm not a confrentational person, so I don't know how to handle it. She also is butting in on my life all the time. I'm 22 years old, and she does stuff like call my therapist because she doesn't believe that I tell her the right things about her (my mom) or like my cellphone battery died last night, and when I checked my messages today, she had left me 6 voicemails.. who knows how many times she called and didn't leave a message!

I think she feels like she has more of a right to me than my dad does, but I don't feel that way.. he's my dad, I shouldn't feel guilty about having him in my life. Her dad wasn't in her life for 25 years, and she just got him back, so she should know how I feel.. I don't know how to handle any of this
