Actually you're in the perfect position to show that you have a life without her.

Robx is right. DO NOT make things easy for her. If she can't handle the kids, too bad. She can't pawn them off on your mom. She's your mom not hers. If she wants to live life on her own, then it's time for her to put on her big girl panties and do it.

You should definitely not have helped her with the oil. You helped her and then what? Has she been nicer to you? Nope. Don't reward bad behavior.

Continue not answering all of her calls. In fact, a few times when she does call, take it outside as if you were in a restaurant or club, then tell her you can't hear her. Tell her that you hope she's doing well and then you'll talk to her later, then hang up.

She'll get angry, but so what? She can't control you anymore right? That's what you want to show her. Plus you're giving her what she asked for.
