does anyone else’s nParent like to pretend your dumb

not being funny but my mum is genuinely stupid, i’d probably be nicer about this if she wasn’t evil but she is just simply put stupid and she’s incredibly insecure about her intellect but once she realised that everyone knew she was dumb, she completely doubled down started pretending i was the dumb one?

like examples, nothing can be explained to her, i don’t know why this is but you could really clearly explain something to her and she’ll come up with the most random and illogical and genuinely confusing reply and then look at you like you said something weird. i cant even figure out how she gets to these places but she does. you could explain your plan for the day, where you’re going etc and she’ll come up with the most random curveball in your day and how this thing might go wrong and it’s like how did you even get over there. and because she’s basically a little baby we(my siblings and i) have to re explain and dumb down sentences so she gets it, but more specifically with me, i’m the only one who ignores her completely, keeps conversations to a minimum and doesn’t ever stay in the same space as her willingly and she knows it’s intentional so she’s recently started pretending i’m stupid.

i could say anything and she’ll immediately combat it regardless of whatever evidence is there. the other day she started explaining what a quarter was. i’m 19. i fed the dog half of her food and my mum started explaining what a quarter was because i apparently obviously didn’t know (she never told me to give her a quarter) but if i had told her she never specified she’d act like i was crazy so i let her. she constantly pretends she doesn’t know what i mean when i say things, despite me being completely clear, as a way to belittle me and again pretend i’m dumb & more recently my toddler niece dropped a toy down our radiator, my mum asked where the toy went and i obviously told her to which she replied, well it can’t fit down there but i’ll look for it. i don’t know what to say apart from it just did?? like i watched her put it down there, my aunt was also in the room and told her not to, as toddlers do and she completely disregarded what i said with ‘it can’t fit down there’ despite two people seeing it happen. it’s little things like this that aren’t obvious to people who aren’t aware of her affliction but she does it constantly.
