I just plain don't tell my mother anything. Every hobby is an opportunity to criticize and belittle, so why bother?

Exactly, think: How does my mother treat me? How should I treat her?

And then they get mad that you don't tell them what you're up to. Either listen and don't belittle, or be a belittler and don't expect to hear anything.

Pick one, you can't have both.
