My husband has cut off his mother. my husband has ADHD and he was undiagnosed until adulthood. She still sees him as the annoying little boy who acted out at school and caused her embarrassment and she has never “forgiven” him for it. She is emotionally abusive to both him and his sister and is narcissistic.
My husband and I have a really good relationship with my family but whenever I’m alone with my mum she always brings up my husbands mother. It’s been happening frequently now and she just doesn’t see how a child could leave their mother. She will never say any of this to my husband, only to me. She keeps trying to convince me that my husband is missing out by not having his mum in his life.
My mother and I had a long discussion today about it and she kept almost seeing my point but kept bringing up ridiculous hypothetical scenarios to prove me wrong. She doesn’t believe someone as nice as my husband could come from a mother as bad as we say. I just got so frustrated with the conversation I started crying and left. I still feel really upset now, how can I get her to stop bringing it up?
TL;DR: My husband has cut off his abusive mother and my mum won’t stop bringing it up to me.
