Over the past few years, I've been aware of how the historical dysfunction and abuse have begun to show up in my adult children and my relationships with them.

I wasn't the greatest mom, but I always hoped they would be happy. My reaction to stress and triggers is to withdraw and remain in shock. And they have done/said some pretty awful things to me.

I can feel myself withdrawing from my children and not really liking them very much. I do know I play a part in this.
Lately, when we get together, we end up arguing. Then I think about things. Apologize and try to have a better conversation.

Maybe it's time for me to stop trying anymore. If they want to spend time with me then they can call.

I just don't know what to do
