Personally, I don't mind talking with my family/mother on a frequent basis, though briefly. The problem I'm finding is that if I go without such frequent communications it is viewed negatively by my mother to a degree that it is significantly disruptive.

When she treats you like a child politely describe her behavior and its effect on you and end the call...

I totally agree with you. I often do exactly that. Unfortunately, it seems to have the opposite effect of adding fuel to the fire. She will often take my unwillingness to continue such conversations as proof that either my girlfriend is brainwashing me against her point of view or that I'm being immature about the subject. Obviously there is something wrong here.
