That sounds good. My mom was sort of the same way. She got upset at first and I basically told her that I did not need that right now and that it wasn't helping the sitch. at all. She has been a lot better and supportive of my W.
I try not to discuss anything with my family now. I have never been one to discuss personal issues with my parents. Just the way I grew up. A stranger on the street or this board....no problem!
