I am glad you can start to see her differently for your sake now - in terms of you dealing with her as an adult.
But I am also certain (which from me is a very strong statement as I am almost never completely certain about anything other than as it relates to me) that no matter what a child does, they should not be treated the way she treated you. My point for saying this is due to concern that you not minimize your trauma. You did not deserve what she did to you.
