[quote=Anonymous]Op, I am so very sorry. Your mother and stepfather are psychologically limited, and very traumatized themselves. (The generational transmission of abuse from one generation to the next is well documented and not at all uncommon. You are not alone by any means, sadly). Your mother is mired in deep shame, deep humiliation that is steering much of her behavior. These are very complicated dynamics, stay in your own treatment, work through this with (hopefully) a therapist skilled in trauma who you trust. Encourage your mom to see someone, maybe she will maybe she never will. You are entitled to whatever boundaries you need to set. Truly....you are a mother now. You have your own life, surround yourself with loving, healthy people. Good luck. [/quote]
