I hate it too. What do you mean by "safe bond"? As for how to battle it..I really believe in looking back. After my post, I emailed my older sis and asked her about my grandmother. Sis knew her better. What she told me really helped me understand what kind of upbringing my mother might have had. That explained a lot. She couldn't give me what she never got herself. It wasn't my fault..I hope this helps someone..
