My mom is very open with me about the fact that the reason she does things for other people (when she does) is to make HERSELF look good. She wants to get recognition for being the best, the most important, the most giving, the most helpful. She also did a lot of volunteer work when i was little, while in the meantime beating me and emotionally abusing me in every way possible.

BLAH. it's painful. but that's one possible explanation.
