My mum kicked me when I was pregnant.

[poshsinglemum]

Mum and I have always had a rocky relationship as she has bipolar disorder.

When I was pregnant with dd I was abandoned by my dds dad and it wa sagreed that I would go home in order to live with mum and dad.
I was living some miles away to work and my parents came to pick me up.

I was sitting in the front seat and mum was sitting behind me and we started our usual bickering. She kicked me in the back through the seat. It wasn't hard but it was the principle that upset me especially as I was so pregnant. She said that I always take over meaning she resents me coming back to the house.
I have moved out and mum is always trying to make up for neglecting me in the past but she still treats me like this when she is ill.
It's not right is it? I don't want to cut her off completely but she just looses it so easily. It really upsets me.

This is the general feeling I get- that she thinks I take over. In other words she hates the attention being off herself.

Of course it's not right. She's totally out of order.

While tbh you ought to cut her off completely, she certainly seems to have earned this, I do understand why you don't.

Perhaps though you seriously ought to keep a distance, don't let her get overly involved in your life,in general, and keep her at arms length.

Just because she is your mum, doesn't give her the right to 'lose' it with you. If she does, tell her that it's unacceptable for her to speak to you like that, walk away and give her some space... a week ought to do it.

Your 'attention seeking' theory could be spot on! Take a breath and try some Reverse Parenting.
