I am not picking up stbxah's phone calls or responding to texts.

So now Mommy is fighting her baby boy's battle.

I answered the call from her bc I figured she wanted to talk to the girls (funny thing is that since AH left she hasn't called to talk to the girls a SINGLE time).

Anyway, 2 seconds in, I start being told that the "real" problem is the I am verbally and emotionally abusive toward stbxah; that my "demands" over the years (which consisted of please don't lie to me and please keep your word) were controlling and manipulative.

I ended the conversation very curtly and hung up without defending myself.

BUT... it is really bothering me. It's not the first time I've head an A or their family claim that the other family members are "abusive" and it's triggering for me.

AH is the emotional abuser and so manipulative and yet he spins it to make me the abuser. I have a hard time with the "I'm a victim, I am so persecuted" crap. And I certainly don't need the worlds biggest enabler (his mom) telling me I have abused her son.

I won't be answering the phone if it is her again but for some reason this is sticking with me and really really bothering me and I'm not sure why...

Thanks for letting me talk...
