[quote=Anonymous]My mom used to tell me that I'd "understand" once I had my own kids how hard it was and forgive her for some of the things that happened during my childhood. On the contrary, now that I have my own children it's even more beyond me how she could have raised us the way she did. She was highly verbally and mentally abusive, and mildly physically abusive. I do feel for her because she was a product of her own bad upbringing. She was married 4 times by the time I was 12, 2 of her husbands were physically abusive, 1 I don't remember, and the final stepfather (now divorced, but he was my "dad" for 15 years) was an alcoholic mess.[/quote]
