                                 My mom hates my husband.
  I know this may seem odd, or that I may be exaggerating, but I believe it.  
  Today, my mom called me up and asked me if I had my husband's permission to see her.  
  I explained that I didn't need his permission to do anything.
  Later in the conversation, I was asked if I was allowed to own a car.
  I told her that once we had the money and the time to purchase me a car, we would do so.
  Finally, because she heard the sound of me putting things away, she asked me if I had to do the housework.
  I told her that I was doing the housework because it needed to be done.
  She gave me a lecture about how I shouldn't always think I needed to be the housewife because my husband told me to.  She ranted about me not going to college (I will be in the summer...) or about me not having a job.
  I know these are valid concerns, but she voices them every time she calls me.
  Finally, after getting quite snappy with her, telling her for the 20th time that yes, I am happy with my life, and no my husband is not abusing me, my mom does this:
  "Well, I can see that I'm not appreciated, so I'm not going to call you anymore.  If you want to talk, you can call me yourself.  I don't like the way you treat me and..."
  I hung up on her.
