Yeah that's hard to stand up to my mom....she is kind of a bully in the sense that she uses all she can to get her way. I try to think, look for the good in people, give a second chance (as I have been given many). I am running out of cheeks to keep turning.
You are right, of course.
You are allowing your mother to bully you by consistently "turning the other cheek". Honestly, you need to have a "come to Jesus" with Mom BEFORE the cruise. I would present her with a list of your plans. If, she would like to participate...fine. Otherwise, she can fill the time slot, however she pleases.
I think, things will come to a head, sooner or later. Personally, I'd prefer the confrontation BEFORE the cruise and on my on terms.
Good luck!
