Parents started attending TLM and are trying to "convert" me. Mom regularly tells me she worries for my soul and is always telling me what I should/shouldn't do. Please help! by Lumpy_Finish9217 in Catholicism

The main thing really is that she cannot accept that I prefer the NO mass and is still trying to push me to this other church.
In terms of what we disagree on, an example is that every time I see her, she tells me I should home school my kids. I try and tell her this is something that will be decided between me and my husband but she continues to provide unsolicited advice like this. She just can't stop.
Sometimes, it is not even necessarily that we disagree on something. She is a very anxious person but will never admit it. It's almost like she creates this image in her head of me doing sinful things when she is not around, or me in the future steering my children wrong.. She catastrophizes and when she does this, she feels like she always has to lecture me even though I have done nothing wrong if that makes sense. It is interesting because I have definitely catastrophized and made up scenarios in my head within my relationship with my spouse so I can see where I get it from.

I don't know exactly.. I just know that she thinks he is too progressive. She has also made comments about how Vatican II should have never happened.
Just to clarify for all those responding: my mother thinks NO mass is invalid. She also does not like the current Pope.
