To think this comment from DM is unforgivable?

I have had issues with DM for a while, basically wondering if she is a nice person or not and usually giving her the benefit of the doubt. She is very selfish and makes every situation about herself. Moans about looking after my DD (very rarely does so), moans about my DDad, thinks she is generally very hard done by.

Sometimes I wonder if it's me but today she made a comment about a young family who have moved in across the road from her. It's a husband and wife and they have a young child who is disabled and will be a wheelchair user for the entirety of their life. The parents seem pretty friendly nice people.

My mum said: "I wish they hadn't moved in across the road I don't like to see it." By "it" she was referring to children with disabilities because it makes her sad. However to me this just made me realise that she is categorically selfish, not a nice person and almost inhumane to be honest. DH was trying to make me see it as not as bad and saying she picked her words wrong, but I just don't see how it could be anything other than completely gross.

I've been contemplating our relationship for a while and this makes me think I'm right to consider going LC. AIBU?

Hi OP. The comment from your DM was foul and shitty enough. But if she is a generally negative, energy draining person who isn't nice to be around then I would definitely go LC for that reason.

I have recently realised that my mother is a toxic woman in her own way, and will never change. I love my mother, but I can't be around her or talk to her as much anymore.

Sure any excuse will do if you want to go low contact because you’re sick of your mothers complaining ways.
