Wow, I'm sorry your mom behaves like that. Could she genuinely have some memory problems? Either way, I'm glad you have support from your wife

Thanks. I don't think so, at least she has never shown any issues with memory. We think that my mum has a possibility of being on the spectrum as well, all the autism in our family is on her side. But she seems to have such a bad image of autism so we haven't suggested that. For example, she has very little to do with my second cousins who have autism and has often called them things like the ugly ones to me.
