Yeah Vicki ..sounds like shes not having a good time of it herself ! But really good to hear you had brought your own feelings to the fore. Gives her a chance to reflect and hopefully work on that to your advantage.
I am from a family of non listeners..they just talk and talk AT each other at that ! If you dont agree with them ..you are shouted down ..made to feel stoopid. So, it strikes a chord when people say they are not feeling listened to or understood.
I learned to not have a voice which is sad at the best of times and very destructive when you cant vent. Grrrr
Have a good day ..
