Quick BG: since I became a parent my relationship with MOO has struggled. I realized the things she has done are things I would never do to my own children.
latest issue: I stumbled across a debil convo yesterday on my cousins page. My MOO was publicly trashing my younger sister and i (again) because we have different political views. I'm hurt, angry, and not surprised.
What she said: "like so many liberals, they will not even listen to a different point of view. I thought I taught my kids to look at both sides before making a decision. They don't. They just go with whatever sounds good and whatever there friends think. There is no deep thought involved. My disappointment is they don't think things through. I do not always agree with (cousin), But he is informed and thinks through then makes a decision about what he believes."
She thinks because I have a different opinion than her I'm stupid. Nevermind that I'm the only one of her children that has a college degree.
I'm over this shit. She thinks she can say whatever she wants without consequence. I'm tired of being put down and used as her verbal punching bag because I'm not her prize child.
I want a long TO, possibly leading to a CO eventually. Do I say something? or just stop talking to her? we barely talk right now anyway. she announced my pregnancy before I did. my daughter is 2 and she has only visited maybe 8 times. She lives an hour away and sees my older sisters kids daily. I see this as a good thing now, but It still hurts. Tell me what to do.
