I have emotionally divorced my mother.

I haven't completely, I suppose. But I try to keep her at arms length emotionally while still being relatively dutiful and kind to her. It's not really her fault that she is who she is.

I'll never let her live with me, and I have let her know that if she says or does certain things, I'll walk away or hang up. Then I do.
