Janie Grace Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 (edited) I have posted about my NPD mom. NPDs are notoriously bad gift givers, for a variety of reasons. Sometimes it's because they just aren't empathetic and don't pay attention to what you would like, and sometimes the reasons are more manipulative. I also posted a funny article here about ridiculous plaques/wall art that say "live laugh love "and stuff like that (it was funny, with commentary about each stupid sign). I also posted it on Facebook, which my mother religiously reads. Guess what my mom just gave me as a gift? You got it. A wall plaque (from Walmart) that says "be still."

zoobie Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Gotta love Walmart's liberal return policy. Soon, the wall plaque can become toilet paper. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janie Grace Posted April 5, 2017 Author Share Posted April 5, 2017 "I'm gonna PROVE that she's wrong. I'm gonna get her some wall art and she's gonna LOVE it OR ELSE" EXACTLY. Or "I'm gonna set up a situation where I can be offended (my gift isn't displayed in your home?!?!) so that you can feel guilty and grovel." I'm also a bit suspicious of the "Be Still" exhortation. I'm sure it's linked to some failure to be peaceful in the midst of my busy life. :001_rolleyes: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang it behind the toilet. :D 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
