one suggestion that was given to me re my mom..."she did the best she could do with what she had." now i know that's not easy to do or accept. i slide back sometimes but it did help me see her as a person, not just as my mom.
when i became a mom everything i didn't like about my mother i excluded when i was raising my son. so it turned out on the positive cause i was aware what hurt/troubled me growing up with my mom. i wanted more for my son.
