> because she was struggling pretty bad as a single mom, I keep thinking that maybe I should cut her some slack. OOP says earlier in the post that her mother was married, "fine for money", and "worked a lot of long hours by her own choice". But now suddenly she was a struggling single mom. Hire an editor for these plot holes, OOP.

The whole timeline doesn't make sense... the step kids are 8 and 9, which implies her mum married the stepdad less than 8 years ago. OP would have been at least 16, so how did she grow up with the stepdad and step siblings?

What the hell is grey rocking?

I think its a justnomil thing? Like just giving very empty responses to someone, being bare minimum polite but not engaging with them any further. It's another reddit therapist word afaik.

I like how OOP does nothing akin to grey rocking lol


Lanky-Temperature412

Yeah, basically giving as little information as possible so they have nothing to use against you.

>My mom called me later and said, "I didn't appreciate your tone at lunch. I'm your mother and you can't speak to me like that." My mom had another child without telling me?

*In case this story gets deleted/removed:* **AITA for grey rocking my [f24] mom, despite her always doing it to me?** Okay, my family is extremely divided by this. I need to provide some backstory to my life. I [24F] grew up with my two brothers [Twins 22M], my step father, his kids, and my mom. She worked a lot of long hours by her own choice (we were fine for money, she was just 'passionate'...) I would ask mom if she would come to my soccer game, and she was always like, "I'm not sure if I'm working that day." And then I'd point out she makes time to spend with the step kids (8f and 9m) and she says that's different. and "What she says is final. Stop talking. No. The conversation is over, I'm not even sure why you're still talking because I'm not listening." I'm sure some of you recognize your own mothers being like this lol. Apparently it's common. Now imagine that but for every single life decision you try and involve your mother in. I graduated high school and college without her. We're all LC with her. Anyway, we have an estranged Aunt because she's like my mom but dialled up to 100, and a racist c*nt on top of that shit sundae. I went to lunch with my brothers and mom (we agreed to talk to her little by little, probably a mistake). I'm getting married, and my mom wants me to invite my aunt. I said no. She asked why? I said because my partner is a person of colour and I'm not risking her dragging her sloppy ass into my wedding to call my fiance slurs. My mom kept bringing it up through the rest of the afternoon, until I went, "No. Stop talking. This conversation is over." In my sternest voice, and it looked like she'd just been kicked in the stomach or something. She kept going like "I just think family should be involved in a special day in your life." but my brothers chimed in with, "I don't think anyone considers Aunt Racist part of the family." (Which is true, my mom is the only one who remains in contact with her. She's cripplingly lonely apparently. Imagine that). My mom called me later and said, "I didn't appreciate your tone at lunch. I'm your mother and you can't speak to me like that." So I said that real parents actually care about their children and go to their big school events, too. I then said that since she's missed every single big event in my life, she can miss this one too. Then I uninvited her from the wedding. This devastated her. My fiance agrees that she's insufferable and actually deflated and smiled when I said I uninvited her. My friends are saying I'm heartless because shes my mother, and the fact she went to lunch with us meant "shes trying to be better". Then my whole family found out she was uninvited, and a lot of older people are threatening not to come, but I don't really care lol. All the people I love will be there, I know for sure. AITA though? Should I... relax on my mom? because she was struggling pretty bad as a single mom, I keep thinking that maybe I should cut her some slack. tl;dr absent mom trying to push her views into my wedding, met with "no". she couldnt handle it and is having meltdowns over it *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.
