Advice: A reader feels overwhelmed and her mother’s constant negativity isn’t helping. “Given that — of the two of you — your mother is the one who wants more attention, the burden should be on her to figure out how to get it,” writes Amy Dickinson.
I am now in my early 30s and in the last trimester with my third baby. Sadly I lost my first baby at birth, but I do have a toddler at home, and my mom is back to her old tricks. She indirectly blames me for her loneliness, even though my husband and I have offered to help her move closer to us . She’s started leaving me passive-aggressive voice mails about having to “schedule” time to talk with me .

This is an extremely important and stressful time in your life, and you should prioritize your own mental and physical health — and that of your children.

He has now sent around a copy of an obit that says our mom was survived by her “husband.” He also demanded that I lie about other things.
