My mom is starting to annoy me.When I talk to her own the phone she brings up my daughter, she says it's harder for someone with a high IQ to deal with a special ed child( my daughter is a little slow, she's catching up). I don't understand what my IQ has to do with raising a child? She didn't even raise me and my brother who is a little slow. She even had a chance to raise my brother and she refused!I would like to say something to get her to shut up about it but I don't know what to say. I need some good ones!

Tell her that you all are doing fine & have a happy family & she doesnt need to be concerned about this.If she continues,,tell her that you are no longer going to have this discussion.If she doesnt listen to that,,hang up.Call her later like nothing happened,,if she continues,,repeat the same thing.

I relatively have been the two. My first husband and that i divorced whilst my daughter replaced into 2 and that i replaced right into a single mom and worked. Now i'm a stay at domicile mom and that i'm able to inform you that being a single mom and dealing replaced into by far the toughest element I relatively have ever performed.. for me staying at house is a cake walk..I relatively have 3 a house ideal now a while 14, 8 and four or perhaps however at cases it quite is almost loopy it quite is thru far extra uncomplicated than as quickly as I had a million and worked. I relatively have all the sympathy for working mothers and single mothers it quite is not ordinary as a remember of fact it quite is damn no longer ordinary. My hats are off to you..save up the sturdy artwork and relax certain it gets extra uncomplicated .

Tell her it's harder for a son/daugher with a high IQ to talk to a mother with a lower IQ too, but that did not stop you from answering the phone. Then hang up right away.

This is a very touchy subject.
My advice would be if you mother doesn't know about raising "special" children, tell her that. She knows no better than you. But, only take this approach if there was no possibility of her raising your brother, which doesn't seem to be the case.

Just tell her "Mom, I've got all the bases covered with Annie, and everything is super-dooper!" Make this your mantra- it's upbeat, lets her know your on top of all the issues, and yet you don't give her any information. Just keep repeating it to her over and over, and hopefully she'll learn you DO have all the bases covered, everythis IS fine, and you just DO NOT want to talk about it any more.

if you really want it to stop once and for all then when you talk to her and she brings up your daughter then tell her I didnt ask or i wasnt calling you for that. if she continues then you should tell her if she keeps insisting on giving you unwanted advice regarding YOUR daughter then you can not talk to her anymore.
good luck i have a mother that is stubborn and thinks she is the center of EVERYONES universe... so good luck

if you think you're doing an excellent job raising your daughter and if your daughter is happy with you then tell your mother to shut up.

Ask where did she get her PhD? and tell her to mind her business.
