    Save yourself the trouble. It sounds like your mom is a bit like mine, if you dont do exactly what she wants you to do, your BAD. If she changes her mind she can always call you. Your other siblings will eventually do something your mom doesnt like and then she will call you again. Take a break from your mom and be there when she actually needs you.

    This is her way of making her feel good,and make you feel like s**t. Don't accept it and move on with your life. If you have kids , why hasn't she come over to visit them. It's a two-way street. I have this same problem with my in-laws. I won't ever visit them after my f-i-law screwed my wife,kids & me over financially. He carries no guilt,remorse or shame, and tells family a bunch of lies. But I have a printout of his public record and all his financial mess.
