I'm sending warm positive loving vibes in your direction because this stuff is infuriating and hurtful for you and sad. If there's one person in your life who should be accepting and making an effort to understand it's your mum. She should take a leaf out of your son's book by the sound of it.
I've told her again, she said she read something and will be better. I've asked her what she read and told her I can't keep getting the point of exhaustion and frustration. I spelled this out very clearly a couple of months ago and have put noticeable distance between us in the meantime. Time will tell.
