Black-roses

My first thought was lock the door!

If you'd got perfect breasts, she would no doubt find something else to verbally/emotionally abuse you. I've recently thought about how I would cope when my mother is no longer around. Sadly, it will be great relief that I will no longer have to suffer the criticism/abuse that she considers normal behaviour. As we get older (I'm 65), we can become more aware of how unacceptable this is.

As daughters, we're expected to be caring, but sometimes it becomes too much. Thank you can be empty words when other actions are insincere. Okay, timing isn't great but I've recently distanced myself from my mother. Has she apologised for her poor behaviour, no. Instead it's all about her. Should have taken this action 30 years ago, not 3 months.
