Hi there, my long-lost sibling. We met in Bart's journal and I've added you to my friends list. You are under no obligation! I think we may be working on some common issues haunting us from the past.

Yes, I think so. What's your name?

I'm Teresa. I live in Eastern Canada. Heritage-wise, I come from the red-haired and freckled part of Western Europe ( ... )

Thanks! I'm Leslie - I live in Vancouver. I'm Asian - my parents came from China and Hong Kong.

I have no children since I don't ever want to reproduce and make unwitting mistakes. Thanks for the book recommendation; since I like to read, it'll be a good one for the collection!

Yeah, I can relate. My mom still does the same thing... and says that she's always been good, and I was always difficult. Ugh.

It really does get better, but I do think you're right not to become a parent, at least while you are still trying to claw your way out of the worst of it.

For me, the biggest thing was realizing that the way I was brought up wasn't appropriate or right. I managed to end up with a spouse whose family is supportive, positive, and loving.

The next thing was having other people validate the way I felt. I had been surrounded by my mother's family, all of whom thought my mother was the greatest person in the world. As the truth has come out, some of them have even apologized for never having intervened, especially when she was diagnosed with a mental illness and refused help and medication.

Eventually, and luckily before she died, I was able to walk out on her after saying to her that I refused to be spoken to the way she had been. That was so huge!

Yeah... for sure.

I realized this for myself a few years ago, and some people have validated me. (my mother would say that since everyone loves her, I must be wrong... bleh) Is it any wonder I don't want to wish her a Happy Mother's Day? :P

You should see this entry.
