writes: A liitle confused. My mother hasn't been speaking to me for over a month due to the fact that I went back to my ex who she doesn't like. Mind you I have two boys ages 12 and 6 who she has been putting stuff in their heads which I think is not right at all, before this all happened all she ever did was give me negative feedback and I always felt she loved me less, she always has treated my brother and other people better. Do you think I should go ahead and make mends? A mother is supposed to support a child especially when their in tough situations, I never got that from her not once.

You might just be better off distancing yourself from her, however sad that may be. She will eventually turn your boys against you if she's filling their heads with lies, and bashing your character. She may be your mother, but she neither respects or loves you the way a mother should and her behavior could stand to wreck your entire family. Hopefully you have a good relationship with your husband's mother, or the mother of a very good friend. Use them to turn to when you need motherly advise and the closeness your own mother doesn't provide for you. Good luck.

She sounds caustic. I think you are justified in keeping your sons away from her. You and your sons are better off without her; keep your fingers crossed that her "silent treatment" continues. Just stop giving her access to your sons; they don't need to hear this crap.
Is your ex their father, if not, how long were you with him?
