In two weeks I will have a sit down with my therapist and my mother to finalize and clarify my resentment towards her being verbally abusive and physycally at times. It's my final attempt to get her to acknoledge what she did and be able to rebuild a relationship also for me let go of my anger. It could go really well or it could be disastorours.
