Background first - poor relationship with my mother due to her constantly being overly critical, interfering and very negative from childhood through to today. Acts the saint in front of others but has v difficult relationship,to differing degrees,with each of her own children.
She was visiting at the weekend with another family member. After they left I noticed that a head had been broken off a little clay figurine I have - I lost a baby boy in late missed miscarriage last year and got this personalized item on Etsy. I keep it out of reach of my toddler and out of her sight so she can't see it and want it. It's not a toy,I have shown it to mother before and she is aware of significance of it,though really I don't think she cares. She always snoops in things,she thinks because she is my mother she has the right to look through post,re-organise drawers so I can't find things in my own house etc so I'm 95% sure it was her and not other family member. I'm guessing she was ssnooping around,took that out and either dropped it herself or gave it to toddler who then broke it. She then picked it up,hid it behind a photo and said nothing. It would have had to be dropped a distance for head to snap straight off so no way she brushed against it and was unaware that it broke. I am so angry and upset. That she snooped. That she broke it. And that she hid it. WIBU to confront her on this? And what do I say? I know she will try turn it on me,she's an expert at playing martyr!
