Jinnyann,
Don't let them win! Every time my mother visits I am like a coiled spring, I get so worked up, she looks at sad stories on tv or mags and says thats so sad. I want to strangle her, but I am a better person. I have six children and they assure me they have happy lives, they are all doing well, I am doing well and I have a great relationship with my husband. Many wonderful friends,
The cycle is broken.
Thank you for your concern and peace be with you! xxxx
