Advance posting to wish a happy Independence Day to everybody who’s cut off or gone limited contact with a mom who cannot/will not see you, protect you, or show you love in the way you need. You’re a fucking badass and I hope you will take a moment to celebrate yourself this weekend

Thx for the acknowledgement: my sister & I cut off our mother >21 years ago when it became abundantly clear that the narcissism & sociopathy that fucked up our childhoods were just going to continue to corrode our adulthoods. I've never regretted it for one moment since then. Our stepmom is great.

Sent this to my sister; she is the only girl (4 brothers.) My mother has a lot of internalized misogyny that makes her narcissistic tendencies particularly barbed toward Emily. It’s tragic to love a person you can’t trust. I learned that lesson myself 20 years ago so I have major boundaries set up.

I have 1.67 children of my own, and if I ever truly fail them, I hope they don’t waste a minute in going out and finding what they’re owed.

Thank you. Needed to hear this. Feel less guilty about not talking to her than I did, but feel a bit sad on these days.....

The last time I had any contact with my mother she was taunting me about the impending death of her own mother. I knew at that moment that nothing else she would ever have to say to me would make up for that.

Thank you. I needed to hear this right now. She's a narcissist and I keep forgetting that she can't be trusted.

I feel your pain because I flew from Memphis to Minneapolis and then drove to Preston, Minnesota for Mother's Day while my sister sits on her ass a 2 hr drive away not visiting or sending a card. And I'm the bad guy.

There’s a special strength that comes from inside for anyone who is singled out and left behind by a parent yet somehow perseveres through that emotional gauntlet. Those who’ve experienced it, know and feel it in others. Each story is unique, each story hurts, yet each story also inspires.

Thanks for this! The last time I spoke to her was through attorneys. My wife and I celebrate the last time I spoke to her in person. 14 glorious years this year.

Thank you! I needed to read something like this. I can relate. I, in turn, wish you a Happy Independence Day yet I am not free from the damage mom did to my psyche.
