Mine is too old to change. Plus she never owns up to anything. She's an instigator, but always manages to come out as the victim.

I moved in with mine 4 years ago, after my divorce. It was only going to be temporary, but I'm still there because of her health issues...so I'm her caregiver. I can't afford to live on my own right now...so I feel like a prisoner.

I doubt your mother or mine will ever see the error of their ways. That's about all we can do is to let it slide, even though it's hard. We don't deserve that kind of criticism from our own mothers.

Don't let it get you down.
