[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will add that its also okay to be there for her. She gave you life and she supported your dad. [/quote] Here it is. OP grew up with an abusive woman and you think OP owes her because that woman had sex and gave birth to OP. You chose to keep a child and you need to do right by that child. OP supported her dad too. That said, from my own experience trying to be there for an abusive mother, these types rarely want support groups and in our case she already had a house keeper several times a week and many indulgences. Mine was all about spending money on her daily self-care yet was still just a miserable person. Boundaries OP. Sure find support groups, etc for her, but don't be surprised if she is too special for that sort of thing.[/quote]
