- No, that's the best for you.

We love grandmother.

- She is part of the family.

You do not just throw people away.

- First father and now grandmother.

Who's next time? Will it be us?

- I could not find that.

Why do you always destroy everything?

Treasure.

- Well done.

Children. Children ...

That's how it went.

How did I break Christmas.

I regretted my mother so much -

- I forgot the only thing

that means something.

I forgot my children.

The worst is,

I did not even break Christmas.

I destroyed my family.

Mother. It is Christmas Eve.

Where should we order food?

Mother? Mother?

Hello.

Good day.

Thank you for inviting me.

- I did not do it.

What about kellinger?

- Goodbye, Isis. Isis is here.

Hi, Isis.

- Hi.

I did not believe,

you were the churchgunner-type.

I have something I have to control.

And all the hostels are closed.

So, you two.

I really need

moral support today.

Do you know what I mean?

- No.

My daughter says she needs "air"

but what does it mean at all?

My daughter has just asked me

disappear forever.

Why?

- Because I push her.

She can not tolerate it.

My mother was twice as hard,

and I've been amazing.

But apparently not everyone

just as strong as me.

My daughter did not throw me out -

- but she became furious over,

that I had bought the house next door.

Did you buy the next door?

- Did you ask her first?

No, that would be a surprise.

- Maybe it was just over the top.

It's very sick.

I love her. You only visit Carla,

when you need money.

I will also come when I

for example, saving me to someone.

Admit you're a degenerate ludomaniac

without education and with extensions.

It's my own hair,

and you are a terrible mother.

It's Jesus' birthday ...

You think you are so perfect,

but you are the worst mom of all of us.

So next.

But you are one of the mothers,

that's perfect -

- holding smart parties,

can cook and have all your teeth.

But you are miserable for all that applies.

I can see that, even though I'm skewed.

You know nothing about me.

Why did your daughter smear you?

Then you got it.

"I've done ugly things against Carla.

And she never threw me out.

So take it and roll it well together

and plug it up obliquely.

Well then.

We have expressed

some strong emotions here tonight.

Hold on, Sandy.

- Javel.

Hello.

I've heard what happened.

Can you make it?

I do not know.

May I ask you a question?

- Yes.

How do you handle it?

- Which?

Living with Mom?

She is so controlling and vain.

She has created the perfect version

by herself so she can look down on others.

Darling, your mother is not vain.

She is wearing princess clothes

at least once a month.

You probably do not think, but she is

the most unsafe woman I've met.

My mother? Ruth?

- Yes.

Redmond?

- Yes.

She shows it only to me but below

the surface is a scared girl -

whose mother never loved her

You know grandmother.

Your mother can never do anything good enough.

She pours her down every single day.

That's why it's so important for your mother,

that everything is perfect.

Not because she is vain.

But when someone praises her Christmas tree -

- Does she feel a short moment,

that she is valuable.

That she is good at something.

That she is loved.

- Why is that about me?

Do you know what she is most?

unsure about Being a mother.

She has said countless times to me:

"Have I been a good mother to Amy?

Have I broken it all? "

Does she really ask about it?

- She loves you more than anything else.

She's just ... a pretty insane way

to put it on.

We have been married for 36 years -

- and she's unbearable even on a good day.

But I love her more today,

because I know her true me.

And if you can get yourself to

to forgive her -

- and get to know her as I do,

would you like to discover -

- that she is a funny, sweet

and beautiful person inside.

Did you say "sweet"?

- Okay, a fun and beautiful person.

Yes ...

Do you know where she is?

- It's Christmas Eve.

Pardon.

Mother.

Hello.

Hi! Sandy, Kiki's mother.

- Yes, nice to meet you again.

Imagine that you all three are here.

What are you doing here, Amy?

I came to say sorry for

that I threw you out

You are my mother and it was a bit rough.

- You must say that.

Yes.

Your psycho-aunt. She apologized,

and now you must do the same.

How do we speak people together?

In principle, I'm too sorry about it.

It was beautiful. Now you tell her so,

what you are sad

You can.

I might not have to

have kept a secret party with you

You have hit a sea of bad

Decisions also in this Christmas, but ...

... for the tiny share of guilt,

there is mine -

- I would like to apologize.

Thanks.

I know it was hard for you to say.

- It was actually.

And ...

I want you to know

that I understand why you are such.

And I need you to know -

that i love you

What does it mean?

I do not think you're worthless.

I think you are absolutely amazing.

- Why do you say that?

And whatever others say ...

... I think you are a wonderful mother.

Do you mean it?

- Yes.

I loved my childhood.

You gave me everything,

what I needed.

You always pressed me

to do better.

Were you perfect?

- Yes.

No.

But that's none of us.

But you just know ...

... that you made it amazing.

It's the cutest,

someone ever told me.

And I actually think,

you are a very wonderful mother

Your children are happy, sweetheart,

and they love you so much.

Thanks.

- I wish ...

I wish I was the same

close to you as you are on your children.

We can still still be.

I'm not good at this, Amy.

But I love you so much.

You too.

You're all done.

Relationship between mother and daughter

is very complicated.

But now they have found each other.

Yes. I know.

Should you have a sip?

So, so.

Mother.

Is it already midnight?

- Yes.

We have to save Christmas.

"I've been waiting for my whole life.

Hopefully she likes cakes.

Mom, it's so far out.

It's over! Beware!

Christmas Day

My Goodness. Where is that beautiful?

Merry Christmas.

- Where have you bumped, mom.

I got some help.

Merry Christmas, children.

- Grandmother.

Open your presents.

You get 'The Walking Dead' Season 1-6.

- Was it necessary?

Thank you, grandmother. Oh boy.

Merry Christmas!

- Merry Christmas, honey.

Merry Christmas, Ruth.

- Merry Christmas, Jesus.

My name is Jessie.

What kind of broad shoulders, what, Amy?

That's enough. Come with you.

Thank you for almost learning his name.

- I love you.

Merry Christmas, Kiki.

- Merry Christmas, Mom.

Do you like my Kiki head pajamas?

In a way.

- Thanks.

I want you to know

that I have put the next door for sale.

Thank you, I'm really happy.

I know I can be a little crazy,

and that you need air.

That's why I bought the house.

It was just for fun.

I bought the house further down.

No, I'm moving up on your loft.

Quite seriously, Mom. Where are you going to live?

I'm going back to Bismarck,

where I belong

Thanks.

But I ...
