    Sad but true, for many many children! As well, there are many children who are loved and looked after, and might still grow up to be not-so-nice human beings. The journey to return to our true selves, (despite / because of our parents) needs to happen for all of us, or so I believe.

    It wasnt until my daughters were growing up that I realised I had been brought up by a dysfunctional mother.I am an only child, so as a child I had no base line on which to know right from wrong. My awakening has been well into adulthood and through loving my children unconditionally and not owning them but treating them with respect and individuality and support for their own choices that my mothers nasty tongue and manipulation was cruel. It has affected me greatly in adult relationships I now realise. I am reflecting and researching to aid my recovery and develop into a more healthy person.The challenge has begun.

    I agree Anita. I blame my ex GF’s mother for abandoning her as a child emotionally. I am disgusted! I found out through my ex GF’s little sister about how horrible and cold their mother was while growing up. I will never forgive that woman for what she did to my EX. Having all these children and couldn’t even give them the proper love, attention and affection. Sickening.

    Dear myfanwy:

    It has been and is an amazing process for me. I knew a lot was wrong the whole time, as a child and throughout my adulthood and yet I didn’t really know. I doubted myself, was conflicted: what was real was not clear to me. Moments of clarity were always followed by doubt and guilt. If I can help you in your challenge (I too had a very, very dysfunctional mother)- let me know. A new thread perhaps, or here.

    Dear ElleTinker:

    Yes, isn’t it amazing? What your ex’s mother did to her, you suffered from. When a person harms another, they harm anyone who happens to love the one hurt. And so it goes… incredible but happens every day, everywhere. Unfortunate!
