Hmmm...I think I might agree with your hubby a little. Sounds like mom needs to prove how smart she is...not how smart you aren't. Not that completely ignoring you and what you might need is OK. But she sounds like someone showing off or trying to make conversation when they are nervous.
My mother sometimes criticizes me about how my brothers and sister are acting. I always think, "wait, hold on here. YOU raised them, so why is their behavior MY fault?"
Mothers...
And you want to take her to therapy with you? No way, nope, nutuh, no, no no...
