Venting about my freaking Mom 🙄

Okay so I’m 26 years old I have two kids, we’ve established that I’m well into being an adult. Anyways I’ve been told countless time from other family members that my mom has talked shit to them about me so many times. And I’m so over it it’s so immature! I’m a single mom to two kids, I would say I’m a damn good mom and I have enough I’m dealing with as is and for her to just do this without thinking it’ll get back around to me just makes me so mad. I think it’s time I cut her off because I just can’t handle the constant toxicity. Has anyone else had to deal with this?

Show your support

I haven’t talked to my mom in 2 years and it was the best decision I ever made. It’s hard but you have to do what’s best for you and your babies

@Charlee I honestly am at that point. I know she’s my mom but I just can’t have the added stress

That is frustrating and disappointing. I wonder if she knows how much it hurts and bothers you. I also wonder about her relationship with her own mom, your grandma. Have you had a conversation with her to ask why she is talking behind your back instead of directly with you about any concerns she has? Especially as your mom, what she did is wrong, period. AND, (not but) as someone that has lost their mom, my son never got to meet his grandma, I would try to see if it could still work between you WITH some new boundaries, rules of engagement, communication, forgiveness and grace. If she isn't willing to do the work to improve the connection, make your decision. It might not have to be all or nothing, she just might not need access to details of your life to be able to judge them n talk trash, maybe just a hi, kids are fine and bye!
