[quote=Anonymous]The judgement is annoying. How old are you? I’m in my 40s now. I share brief stories about how mean my BPD mother is to me and my siblings. If someone wants to give me the “buy she is your mother!” line, I say something along the lines of “When you’re decent to your kids, they’re willing to have a relationship when they’re older. No one wants to walk away from their parent.” I don’t apologize anymore. If they pushback after that, it’s something like “Accepting abuse is not on my list of things to do. I can’t be responsible for her choices.” In reality, only other people with personality disordered parents will really understand. When I find someone who gets it, it makes me more sad than glad. I feel a bit of envy for those who had a mother so nice that they cannot wrap their head around how a mother could act like mine. Lucky them for not knowing, or understanding! [/quote]
