Wow! This is so true. I have already apologized to my daughter about giving a lot of attention to my son because he was born early. She moved into my sister’s home secretly and I was torn. We have been closer now because I said I was sorry. It’s not super close but closer than before.
Man, ive listened to a lot of these self help people and you are the only one who is straight to the point and cuts througb the bullshit. Ive subscribed and im looking forward to diving into everything. Thank you
@baddasscounseling, as always, you are the effing MAN. So much here to love. I am on this path and will report back how it went. I've been estranged from my eldest daughter, and I'm willing to do the work you've described, and more. Again, thanks.
i wish my mum could understnad this im currently not talking to her; I've MECFS and everytime i try to bring up motherhood during the last 10yrs of disability, she has shut me down. When i informed her i felt unsupported in this and thus had felt 'no platform' to talk about her giving me my money so i could go get my eggs frozen and then the consequences of that being i am now too old for it to be viable to freeze my eggs without 10+ cycles at 5% success rate each time, she immediately went into 'im being blamed for kim not having a baby' and went into what i can only describe as a full-on rage, accusing me of attention-seeking, being ungrateful for all the help n support shes given me over the years, that my hate for her is snow-balling etc, that it's my fault that she's lashing out at my step-dad who is fighting cancer. It HAS however made me again consider and this time accept the covert/vulnerable narcissistic traits she has and the impact they've had on me, even though it comes from her own experience of generational trauma (communal narcissism and military) and tried her hardest not to pass it on.
Absolutely agree 👍 check yourself before you wreck yourself and others
