That is never okay as a person who has gone through family trauma and is hopefully going to have kids in the future I would never do this to my kids. What I think she's doing is pushing her trauma and stuff on to you I'm not 100% sure I get somebody else's opinion on that but that's mine.

its kinda like the mom gets a child and forces/convinces them to become their therapist and then take their anger on someone else even when she wrong i dont like that type of beheiver tbh

Yeah, your mom is most likely is manipulative. And if not then at least not exactly being a good mom ether, kids shouldn’t have to be their parents therapist.

#

Please look up narcissistic abuse when you get the chance, you’d be surprised the things they can get away with

#

Without you even knowing,

your experiences are as valid and painful as everyone else’s.
Don’t forget it.

You are enough and deserve to have a life too.

#

I’m sorry to both of you, rooting for you from here even if we don’t know each other!

I think the worst part, is that everything i wrote wasnt even all of it

upper robin
#

There’s just so much isn’t there?

heady ingot
#

Yes

#

And its not just to me, its to my dad and my sister as well

upper robin
#

Do you think they get it from your mother?

#

There’s also the possibility of similar people attracting each other

heady ingot
#

Sorry, i think i worded that a bit weird, she acts like that also to my dad and my sister

upper robin
#

Oh

heady ingot
#

Its not just me who has to witness it

upper robin
#

I see, yeah that’s not healthy

#

How does your dad act towards her? Can you describe it as sheepish?

heady ingot
#

Kind of, he tried to bring things to her attention and they constantly get into crazy verbal fights, where she screams and breaks and throws things at him while he tries to calm her. Eventually he just gives in and takes the blame and they like talk and calm down after a bit. I feel like he just gets tired of fighting

upper robin
#

How often does he do chores?

heady ingot
#

Rarely, he is the only provider for our house hold he works from 7 to 5 every day

#

He has his own business and works all alone

upper robin
#

Interesting

heady ingot
#

Shes never had a job since i’ve been alive, not that i really remember anyways

upper robin
#

I see
Again, sometimes trauma can be genetic
Recommend you do some research on such family dynamics and figure out ways to not lose your mind

#

It sounds hard but we’re rooting for ya!

heady ingot
#

Thank you so much, this is the first time i’ve ever had someone on my side (outside family)

Agreed

#

But some trauma happens through family by contact

#

Kinda genetic in a sense

She has a therapist, she doesn’t really ever talk to them tho. And im pretty sure she’s delusional and has no clue shes doing any of these things

#

#

so she can know what shes doing wrong
