-that you would have consequences for the way you live your life
-that she talked to someone that knows you really good and says that they told her that you will regret the way you raise your kids, but won't tell you who said that
-and said that you would have one day deeply regret how you raised your kids
-and got upset that I got defensive 'as she was well meaning in trying to show me things and help me'
-all because I don't believe in Christianity...
then 3 weeks later it is Christmas and I show up and can't hack being around her (almost had an anxiety attack from feeling the need to perform for acceptance) so I took my kids and left... and she was hurt and didn't know why because 'she does accpet me and think that I am amazing and just wants what is best for me'

I would walk away with my kids. They will want their kids to choose 'the truth' over you. They will want your kids to regret their childhood, if you don't, they will want the kids too. They are blind by their truth and can't see that they are using religion as a mask for emotional black mail and control

This is what I would say.
1. Everything I do has consequences, some good some bad
2. Hearsay and rumors are for 13 year olds and I don't have time for it. Get on with your point!
3. I'm their mother not you. My children will love me regardless of what you may think.
4. I'm sorry you feel that way, but you are completely out of line.
5. All religion is a choice. I will choose the one that suits me and my family best.
You may need to keep your family away from her for a time until she learns to truly accept you. Bible Thumping is wrong and has never won any TRUE converts.

Sounds like my entire family----I didn't see them over the holiday's but they have chosen not to know me or my family because I choose my own way of life---Do Control Freaks ring a bell?

Sounds like my mother. Its prob because you are grown, and have a life of your own. Now she cant control you, and she cant stand it.

This doesn't make sense. She tells you you aren't doing things right and in the next breath everything is o.k.???????????CLARIFY
