I should add that my mom and step-dad were also drug addicts and alcoholics.
My mom was emotionally abusive, neglect etc...and my step-dad was physically, sexually, and emotionally abusive. It landed myself and my siblings in foster homes twice.

Their lifestyles have changed and they no longer drink or do drugs, but my mom still can't accept the fact that I am in counseling, she says that its the past and I should leave it there. That affects me alot ,as I feel she is still so unsupportive, I have pretty much given up and accepted the fact that she is never going to be the mom I wished her to be.......
My step-dad is still married to her but he and I have no relationship whatsoever, apart from a simple hi when I see him...

Hanging on
