My mum is driving me potty. Apparently babies in her day didn't have teething problems. All babies went to bed at 6pm and woke (note "woke", not were allowed up) at 8am. We didn't have such frequent colds and bugs. We were never sick. The list goes on. I'm beginning to get a bit of an inferiority complex about it and take it as criticism. But when I say something like "so how did you get us to sleep 6-8?" she goes all vague and can't remember just says that is how it was. She also blatantly misremembers things about our childhood that my sister and I remember completely differently. Is this normal of her generation? How can I deal with it without answering back? She's become quite involved in DS care lately as I've been ill and so I need and value her support, I just find this all a bit infuriating.
