She's 38 with one child and a husband. She has chronic fatigue and says I (mother) make her feel bad. I love her and don't want to hurt her but she won't talk to me and I feel miserable. I prided myself for being a caring and loving parent to my three children. Now I feel horrible. What to do?
Without further information as to why she does not at the moment want to speak, its difficult to advise.
However one thing I will say is - Go into the kitchen get the sissors and cut those apron strings !
Step back, treat her as the adult she is, as you would treat a freind you care for. Let her know you are there for her. She may just want you to listen, she may just want you not to listen. Its her problems, her issues. Just support her and listen if she needs it.
Good luck, I wish all parents were so caring. But dont smother.
