I know you said you didn't need a response, but I wanted to let you know that I relate to what you're saying and that your venting often helps me figure out stuff in my own life.

I'm so sorry your mother died so young, Lindammarie.
By age 6 I hadn't heard much bad about me: I was the youngest at that time, and, I think, my parents' favorite. But by age 9 that had turned diametrically opposite, due to several reasons. Then I was the burden, scapegoat, and more. Till this day, in some ways, still, though I've never asked them for anything.
Well I hope some of what I say unlocks some areas that can help exploration in others' issues... one can't begin to solve an issue if unaware of it.
