Just venting really...
Have barely spoken to my mother in last few months after a disagreement she just won't drop unless i acknowledge how wrong i am. Me not doing this is a very new thing. I really do not feel I'm wrong and after many years have had enough of keeping her happy. I have tried repeatedly to nicely move things on.
Anyway, the vent is more about her saying during conversations, I'm your mother and her age. Is simply being my mother enough to command respect?! And does being in your 60s mean you are due respect?
Frankly, she has not been an amazing mother at times but I'm willing to accept she was going the best she could. But i think trotting out I'm your mother is a bit rich.
Oh dear, reading back, i realise I sound really disrespectful without a back story. Ah well, I've said it. Needed to get it out of my head.

Just being my mother doesn't equal being right
