[quote=Anonymous]Here’s the good and bad of my relationship with my mom: The bad: she wasn’t a good listener. Always interrupted me. Always tried to fix, when I really just wanted her to listen. Would not validate my feelings. Instead of “I’m sorry that hurt you” it was “don’t be sad!! A lot of people have it worse than you.” The good: I was heavy in adolescence and she never once criticized my body or shamed me in any way about that. It helped me love myself for who I am. She would drop everything to help me if I was in trouble. This was before Uber, but if I ever called her in the middle of the night because my friend who was driving had started drinking, she would pick me and anyone else up and give them a ride home no anger, no judgment.
