I suffer the consequences of her inaction every day

My mom has made comments like, "you had a good life after i met Frank (stepdad), right?" and said "you didn't always have it so bad." then made comments saying, "i'm a bad mother." I'm not quite sure how much denial she's in. i've told her what happened when i was little about what was happening at my dads house after he had kidnapped me. Then I told her what was happening at my dads house here recently and she basically said, " why didn't you tell me this?!?!"... i'm like "uh ***** i did... how come you never listened?"... of course not in those words.
