Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
If your mom is dysfunctional or abusive,
there's no point in trying to talk with her
about this or any other issue.
And since normal, functioning people, don't
fly into a rage, it's likely she's both these things.
You're not going to reach her
or get her to change.
I'm sorry you lost your grandmother.
Love yourself the way she loved you.
It doesn't sound like your mom is able
to do that. No amount of talking will
get her to be able to love better. You
may have to accept her where she is
and love yourself the way your grandma
loved you.
I have been here for over a year talking about my ex-boyfriend, but I didn't really mention my mom. Thank-you for helping DS to be such a wonderful source of wisdom and help. Best Wishes. Mil.
