[quote=Anonymous]My mom was a very at-arm's-length type of mother -- not particularly loving or maternal. We had and continue to have basically no relationship more than an acrimonious one. I've carried anger toward her for a long time, which I went to therapy to deal with (among other issues). She did a lot of cold things that meant nothing to her but stung for me. I tried to brush it aside -- she is who she is. But my anger is at a new level now because she's totally disengaged from my kid/family and has no interest in being a grandmother let alone a mother. On the rare occasion we talk she likes to pretend everything is just peachy. I talk to my dad weekly and he visits quarterly but I only talk to her a couple times a year and I tell my dad I don't want to hear about her.[/quote]
