I shouldn’t have to worry that my mother is going to còmmıt șùıcde just because I hurt her feelings when I enforced healthy boundaries. Objectively, I know that’s true, that her emotions and what she does with them are not my responsibility. But when a child grows up parenting a parent who was never parent, this is where we end up, feeling guilty for our parent’s emotions when they created the problem to begin with and we are here because they fail to take responsibility and instead put it on their children.

I come from a long line of mean women who shouldn’t have had children, but did anyway.
